Hairston sprained his ankle during Friday's practice but it's not believed to be serious, the Charlotte Observer reports.

Analysis:

The Hornets' next game comes against the Nuggets on Saturday and Hairston will likely be considered a game-time decision for that contest. Even if Hairston is unable to play Saturday, he's only averaging 14.8 minutes per game and his playing time will likely be dispersed among numerous players to fill the void.
