Latest news
James won't start Wednesday's game against the Nets.
Kon Knueppel will make his season debut, pushing James to the bench. The 23-year-old is averaging 4.6 points, 3.1 rebounds and 3.0 assists in 24.5 minutes per contest through eight regular-season outings, though he's likely to see fewer minutes with Knueppel back in the lineup.

James logged 11 points (4-6 FG, 3-4 3Pt), four rebounds and three assists across 21 minutes during Monday's 124-91 loss to Detroit.
Although James continues to work with the first unit, he's essentially serving as a nominal starter for the Hornets while they wait for Kon Knueppel's (hamstring) season debut. The 11 points were a season-high figure for the second-year forward, who had previously been unable to score more than six points in any of his first seven appearances.

James contributed five points (2-4 FG, 1-3 3Pt), two rebounds and three assists across 29 minutes during Monday's 110-103 victory over the Wizards.
James remained in Charlotte's starting lineup but played a limited offensive role, attempting just four shots. The second-year guard has scored five points or fewer in each of his first four appearances this season, though his playing time has remained relatively steady. His low usage makes him difficult to trust in standard fantasy formats.

James will start in Wednesday's game against Brooklyn.
With Kon Knueppel (hamstring) and Coby White (ankle) sidelined to begin the year, James will get an opportunity to start versus the Nets. The 23-year-old started 19 times in 2025-26, averaging 5.9 points, 3.5 rebounds and 2.0 assists over 29.1 minutes per contest in those appearances.

James will start in Friday's preseason finale against the Grizzlies.
This will be James' first start this preseason and he'll be joined in the first unit by Dennis Schroder, Brandon Miller, Naz Reid and Ryan Kalkbrenner. Across 19 starts last season, James averaged 5.9 points, 3.5 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.1 triples per contest on 35/33/83 shooting splits.

James finished with 11 points (3-4 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds and four assists in 20 minutes off the bench during Sunday's 105-90 preseason win over Milwaukee.
James delivered an efficient performance, connecting on three triples while contributing as a rebounder and facilitator. The young guard made a strong case for additional opportunities in Charlotte's rotation, though the Hornets' backcourt depth could make consistent minutes difficult to secure once the regular season begins.
