Jeff Taylor

Jeff Taylor saw his first action of the season after being suspended following a domestic violence charge.Taylor played 12 minutes and added two points, three rebounds, and two assists in the 110-82 Charlotte victory.

Fantasy Impact

It is still not known how much time Taylor is expected to see. Michael Kidd-Gilchrist sees most of the minutes at small-forward, and Marvin Williams and Gerald Henderson log minutes there as well. If Taylor is on your fantasy radar at this point, you're getting desperate, but keep an eye on his minutes over the next few weeks.

Jeff Taylor, who was suspended 24 games earlier this season following a domestic violence charge, has been recalled from the Austin Spurs of the D-League and is available to play Saturday against the Knicks. Taylor averaged 11.8 points and 3.5 rebounds in four games with the Spurs.

Fantasy Impact

Taylor's role with Charlotte is unknown as of now, but expect to see him in the lineup soon. He's a 6'7 wing with a decent outside shot, but he has barely played since the 2012-2013 season due to an achillies injury. If he does start earning some playing time, expect a slight drop in minutes to Michael Kidd-Gilchrist and Marvin Williams.

Jeff Taylor was suspended without pay for what happened in his domestic violence case.

Fantasy Impact

In a statement, Commissioner Adam Silver stated, "This suspension is necessary to protect the interests of the NBA and the public's confidence in it." Taylor has not played this season, and the games he missed count as time missed for the suspension.

Charlotte Hornets forward Jeff Taylor has been arrested in Michigan on domestic assault charges, according to East Lansing Police. He was charged with one count of domestic assault, one count of assault and one count of malicious destruction of property.

Fantasy Impact

Fantasy Impact: At 6-foot-7 and 225 pounds, Jeff Taylor was well-liked by head coach Steve Clifford for his athletic ability. He has been competing for the starting small forward position with Michael Kidd-Gilchrist. This may be a significant setback for the young player with the recency of domestic violence issues brought to national attention from the NFL. Outside of taking over the starting role, Taylor likely would not likely play much into fantasy relevance.
