In this story:


Charlotte Hornets big man Mark Williams has been ruled out for the team's matchup with the Sacramento Kings due to a foot injury.

Williams has appeared in just 25 games for the Hornets this season, but he's been an effective player when on the floor, averaging 15.1 points, 9.4 rebounds and 2.4 assists per game.

With the Hornets starting center out, they're set as massive road underdogs on Monday after losing by 53 points against the Portland Trail Blazers on Saturday night.

Here's how to wager on Charlotte in the prop market with Williams set to miss another game.
