Hornets' Roy Hibbert: Ruled out Saturday

Hibbert (knee) has been ruled out of Saturday's game against the Celtics.

Analysis:

Hibbert experienced some right knee soreness early on in Friday's matchup with the Heat, and though the injury doesn't sound overly serious, the Hornets have decided to hold him out of the second half of the back-to-back set. In Hibbert's absence, expect Cody Zeller to enter the starting lineup, while Spencer Hawes picks up more minutes off the bench.
