NBC SportsSeth Curry (back) and Taj Gibson (illness) are probable to play against the Kings on Friday.

Both players should be good to go against Sacramento, though Gibson's place in the rotation isn't as significant with both Mark Williams and Jusuf Nurkic available. Curry has been starting for Charlotte and should remain in that role despite lower back tightness.

NBC SportsJusuf Nurkic finished Sunday's loss to New Orleans with 13 points, 12 rebounds, five assists, a steal, three blocks and two three-pointers across 22 minutes.

Nurkic was the nominal starting center, though he logged limited minutes and ceded playing time to the likes of Taj Gibson and Moussa Diabate. His 22 minutes were enough time to help fantasy managers, as he concluded with a big double-double, meaningful defensive contributions and even a pair of triples. Nurkic is worth streaming when Mark Williams is out, but be weary of Charlotte's minutes distribution.
