What happened: Charlotte announced the update as the preseason schedule continues. Knueppel is working back from a left hamstring injury, Williams from a right hamstring injury and White from a left calf strain. All three are limited to individual on-court activity and have not rejoined full team work.

Why it matters: Preseason absences reduce evaluation time ahead of the 2026-27 season. Movement to individual work marks progress while leaving full rotation availability unchanged.

What to watch: The next step is clearance for group practice and contact. Game status ahead of the next preseason date will indicate any change.
