Charlotte Bobcats power forward Byron Mullens was held out of contact drills at practice Monday due to continued swelling in his right knee.
Mullens sat out Saturday’s preseason loss to the Detroit Pistons with the same injury. It happened in practice Friday, in a collision with teammate Bismack Biyombo.
“Biz hurt me – he’s taking people out,’’ Mullens joked after practice. “It was a knee-to-knee thing (causing) a little bone bruise. Got a little swelling going on.’’
