Hornets' Nicolas Batum: Injures ankle Wednesday vs. Heat

Batum suffered a sprained left ankle in Wednesday's game against the Heat and is questionable to return, Anthony Chiang of the Palm Beach Post reports.

Analysis:

Batum suffered the injury late in the third quarter of Wednesday's game, so it remains to be seen of the Hornets will be comfortable putting him back in the game. We should see his status updated at some point prior to the end of the game, which should give us a better indication of the severity of the sprain.
