Neal (shoulder) is considered doubtful for Wednesday's matchup with the Blazers, Rick Bonnell of the Charlotte Observer reports.
Neal sprained his left shoulder Monday against the Clippers and will likely miss Wednesday's game, which means P.J. Hairston, who's expected to return from a sprained ankle, could see increased minutes off the bench.
Mon Nov 24 201421:15Neal won't return to Monday's game against Clippers due to left ...
Neal won't return to Monday's game against the Clippers due to a left shoulder contusion.
Prior to the injury, Neal hadn't fared to well from the field, scoring eight points (2-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 4-5 FT) in 14 minutes. Because the severity is unknown, consider him a game-time call for Wednesday's tilt versus the Blazers.
Fri Nov 21 201422:02Neal (concussion) scored 17 points (6-11 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT) in...
Neal (concussion) scored 17 points (6-11 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT) in 29 minutes in the loss to Magic on Friday.
Neal missed the previous two games after suffering a concussion on Monday against the Mavericks. He has had six games of 14 or more points this season and should be a solid source of points off the Hornet bench.
Fri Nov 21 201416:09Neal (concussion) cleared to play in Friday's game against Magic
Neal (concussion) has been cleared to play in Friday's game against the Magic.
Neal has been out since Saturday with the concussion, but has now passed the NBA concussion protocol and has been cleared to play. It's questionable if he'll be on restricted playing time, but he'll offer reserve minutes behind Lance Stephenson at shooting guard. In the 10 games he's played this season, he's averaged just under 25 minutes per game, so if the Hornets give him a full games worth of work, he should probably play somewhere between 20 and 25 minutes in his return.
Thu Nov 20 201418:54Neal (concussion) probably for Friday's game against Magic
Neal (concussion) is probably for Friday's game against the Magic, the Charlotte Observer reports.
Neal suffered the concussion in Saturday's game against the Warriors, and missed both Monday and Wednesday because of it. The fact that he is probable likely indicates he has or is expected to clear the NBA's concussion protocol, which requires him to be symptom-free for 24 hours. The Hornets will likely provide an update confirming his status one way or the other before Friday's contest.
Tue Nov 18 201413:15Neal (concussion) ruled out for Wednesday's game against Pacers
Neal (concussion) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Pacers.
Neal suffered a concussion against the Warriors and did not play Monday versus Dallas. He's still in the NBA's concussion protocol, which requires he remain symptom-free from 24 hours, but he should be ready to play Friday when the Hornets host the Magic. With Michael Kidd-Gilchrist (foot) also out and P.J. Hairston (ankle) doubtful, Gerald Henderson is in line to see big minutes.
Mon Nov 17 201419:00Neal (concussion) unlikely to play Wednesday against Indiana
Neal (concussion), who has been ruled out for Monday's game, is unlikely to play Wednesday against Indiana, Rick Bonnell of the Charlotte Observer reports.
Neal is currently in the league's concussion protocol, and he'll need to be symptom-free for at least 24 hours before being cleared. How he feels Tuesday will ultimately be the deciding factor, but at this time, his outlook appears bleak.
Sun Nov 16 201422:12Neal (concussion/foot) ruled out for Monday's game against Dalla...
Neal (concussion/foot) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Dallas Mavericks, the Charlotte Observer reports.
Neal was originally questionable for Saturday's game with a foot injury, but ended up playing 11 minutes, before suffering a concussion. Considering he played in that game at all, most likely means his foot injury is almost completely healthy, but the concussion could cost him multiple games. He won't play Monday, and will be questionable for Wednesday's game against the Pacers. Head injuries are tough to predict in terms of how long players will be out for, but we'll probably know more within the next few days.
Sat Nov 15 201423:53Neal left Saturday's game against Warriors with concussion and w...
Neal left Saturday's game against the Warriors with a concussion and will not return.
Neal game into the game nursing a foot injury only to be felled by a concussion after playing just 11 minutes off the bench. He'll have to go through the usual array of concussion tests before he's cleared to play again, so at this point his status for Monday's game against the Mavericks seems questionable.

Neal (foot) is considered questionable for Saturday's game against the Warriors, Steve Martin of the Hornets' official site reports.
Having made it through Friday's game, seemingly without incident, Neal should be able to suit up Saturday. He had 14 points, three boards, three assists and a steal over 25 minutes Friday night, after hurting his foot during practice.
Sat Nov 15 201403:26Neal (foot) scored 14 points (4-13 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT) and adde...
Neal (foot) scored 14 points (4-13 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT) and added three rebounds, three assists, and a steal in 25 minutes against the Suns Friday.
Neal was able to play through the injury and preform up to his normal levels. That's good news for the Hornets, who have to play again on Saturday. Though Neal is probably still operating below 100 percent, managers can use him as they normally would Saturday.
Fri Nov 14 201419:40Neal (foot) will play Friday
Neal (foot) will play Friday, but will be monitored early in the game, the Suns' official site reports.
Neal suffered the injury by slipping on a wet spot in practice. It appears he will give it a go, but under supervision. Lance Stephenson is also active Friday, so he and Neal could share some minutes at the two.
Fri Nov 14 201413:09Gary Neal: (Foot) Questionable Friday
Neal slipped on a wet spot at practice and hurt his left foot, making him questionable for Friday's game, the Charlotte Observer's Rick Bonnell reports.
Were he healthy, this would have been a great spot to start him in daily leagues, as Michael Kidd-Gilchrist is out with a foot injury and Lance Stephenson (groin) is also questionable. Consider Neal a game-time decision Friday.

Neal is dealing with an unspecified injury and is questionable for Friday's game, the Charlotte Observer's Rick Bonnell reports.
Bonnell mentioned that Neal, along with Lance Stephenson and Marvin Williams could miss Friday's game against the Suns with an injury, but it's not quite clear exactly what the nature of Neal's ailment is. Monitor his status leading up to the game, as whichever Hornets wings play will be useful options in daily leagues. P.J. Hairston has already been announced as a starter Friday with Michael Kidd-Gilchrist (foot) out.
