Al Jefferson: Questionable Wednesday with sore knee

Jefferson is dealing with soreness in his right knee and is considered questionable for Wednesday's game against the Clippers.

Analysis:

Jefferson has been plagued throughout December by a calf injury along with a five game suspension, but the sore knee doesn't appear to be a serious issue. The Hornets may elect to keep him out of the lineup Wednesday, or at least limit his minutes in order to ease him back into action and prevent any setbacks. If Jefferson's unable to go, expect Cody Zeller and Frank Kaminsky to play key roles in the frontcourt.
