Fantasy Outlook

As a rookie with the Hornets, Salaun averaged 5.9 points, 4.7 rebounds, and 1.2 assists in 20.7 minutes per game across 60 regular-season appearances, hitting 33.0 percent from the field, 28.3 percent from beyond the arc and 71.3 percent from the free-throw line. His counting stats are modest now, but his physical tools, length and energy give him intriguing upside if his development is a priority for the franchise. At this stage, he functions best as a speculative hold in dynasty formats or a watch-list candidate in deeper redraft formats. Still raw and streaky as a shooter, Salaun remains volatile and currently lacks the polished offensive game to be a reliable fantasy contributor. And on the defensive end, he's yet to see his athleticism translate to consistent production in steals and blocks. The Hornets are much healthier in 2025-26 and added some solid depth via the draft and free agency, complicating Salaun's path to minutes. Heading into training camp, Salaun is projected to compete for backup power forward minutes behind Miles Bridges with Liam McNeeley and Grant Williams (knee).
