Phoenix Suns point guard Vasilije Micic (ankle) will be active for Wednesday's clash against the Houston Rockets. The former EuroLeague star has yet to suit up for the Suns since his trade from Charlotte. However, he will likely log his first minutes with his new squad on Wednesday, as the Suns will be short-handed in the backcourt. Devin Booker (back), Bradley Beal (toe), and Grayson Allen (knee) are all out of the lineup.
Phoenix Suns point guard Vasilije Micic (ankle) will not make his debut on Tuesday against the Memphis Grizzlies. He has been downgraded from questionable to out. Micic's next chance to make his first appearance as a Sun will be on Wednesday against the Houston Rockets. However, even if he is healthy enough to play, Micic may not see the court because several players are ahead of him on the depth chart.
The Phoenix Suns added guard Vasilije Micic along with Cody Martin and a 2026 second-round pick from the Hornets in exchange for Jusuf Nurkic and a 2026 first-round pick. Micic had been starting for the Hornets in place of LaMelo Ball (ankle), but now he'll join a crowded backcourt situation in Phoenix. While Ball is expected to return, until he does it will likely be KJ Simpson who continues to hold down the starting spot after producing a solid 15 points and three assists in his first career start on Wednesday night against the Bucks.
Vasilije Micic Tagged As Questionable On Wednesday
Charlotte Hornets guard Vasilije Micic (ankle) has received a questionable tag for Wednesday's matchup against the Milwaukee Bucks. Micic was last seen in action last night against the Washington Wizards, where he posted 13 points, five assists and three rebounds across 28 minutes. If he's unable to suit up, KJ Simpson could see a bump in minutes. Micic started in 16 games and has come off the bench in 20 games this season. The Hornets are currently the 14th seed in the Eastern Conference, with a 12-35 record in 47 games. Hornets shooting guards Isaiah Wong and Seth Curry, forward Moussa Diabat, power forward Grant Williams and point guard Tre Mann are all on the shelf.
Charlotte Hornets point guard Vasilije Micic (ankle) is active against the Washington Wizards on Monday. Micic has shaken off a left ankle sprain to give the Hornets' backcourt a welcome boost. The last game against the Denver Nuggets was rough for Micic; in addition to getting hurt, he finished scoreless in 15 minutes with 0-for-5 shooting. However, he has performed well as a starter for the Hornets, averaging 11.7 points, 3.1 rebounds, and 5.5 assists while filling in for LaMelo Ball (ankle).
Charlotte Hornets guard Vasilije Micic (ankle) is questionable for Monday's matchup with the Washington Wizards. Micic's left ankle injury occurred against Denver on Saturday in the third quarter. The Hornet's backcourt will be shorthanded, especially if Micic can't play this evening. He would join LaMelo Ball (ankle) and Tre Mann (back), who are already out of action. As Charlotte deals with several injuries to key contributors, KJ Simpson will have to step up and likely take on extra playing time on Monday.
Charlotte Hornets guard Vasilije Micic (ankle) was injured during Saturday's three-point loss to the Denver Nuggets. He did not return. The 31-year-old logged 15 minutes on Saturday before exiting with a left-ankle injury. Without question, it's not good news for Charlotte, considering Micic had been filling in for LaMelo Ball (ankle), who will be sidelined at least a week. But assuming Micic will miss some time, which could very well be the case, KJ Simpson, who had eight points, eight assists, and six rebounds versus the Nuggets, may be tasked will filling the hole in the lineup.
Charlotte Hornets point guard Vasilije Micic is drawing links with the Denver Nuggets. "With a salary of $7.7 million this season and an $8.1 million team option in 2025-26, Vasilije Mici continues to be mentioned as a potential down-the-road trade target for Denver given Micic's close relationship with Nuggets star Nikola Jokic," writes NBA insider Marc Stein on his latest Substack post. Micic and Jokic won bronze in the Paris Olympics with Serbia. The 30-year-old is coming off his first NBA campaign. He had a poor spell with the Oklahoma City Thunder but played well in Charlotte after getting traded in February. However, with LaMelo Ball returning to the court, Micic's role will be much smaller in the upcoming campaign. A move to Denver wouldn't be good for his fantasy value either, as he would have Jamal Murray and Russell Westbrook ahead of him on the depth chart.
Charlotte Hornets point guard Vasilije Micic (shoulder) will rejoin the lineup for Friday's tilt against Orlando. He was unavailable for Wednesday's meeting with Portland due to a shoulder problem. Micic has played well for the Hornets, posting 11.5 points and 6.3 assists in 28.1 minutes. His work includes a couple of 20-point performances against the Magic, although it's typically a tough matchup for guards, as Orlando has an elite defender in Jalen Suggs on the backcourt.
Charlotte Hornets guard Vasilije Micic (shoulder) is expected to play against the Magic on Friday night. He's carried an injury designation over the last few games but has mostly played through it. However, the 30-year-old finally got a game off, sitting out Wednesday's loss to the Portland Trail Blazers. At any rate, Micic has played well since joining the Hornets, averaging 13.4 points, 6.5 assists, and 2.6 boards in 15 starts, making him a dependable DFS option, assuming he gets the green light to play.
