Injury adds to the Charlotte Hornets' roster woes, as they struggle with a 7-19 record in the Eastern Conference.

Charlotte Hornets rookie Brandon Miller has been ruled out of a game against the Denver Nuggets due to a right ankle sprain.
Miller suffered the injury in the first quarter while driving to the basket on Nuggets forward Peyton Watson.
Miller has been mostly healthy this season, though he missed games in November due to ankle injuries.
The Hornets are already without Terry Rozier due to a knee injury, Mark Williams due to a back ailment and LaMelo Ball due to an ankle injury.
The Hornets are currently 13th in the Eastern Conference with a 7-19 record.
