His status for tonight's game against the Los Angeles Clippers at the Cajundome in Lafayette is questionable. Magloire was hurt after playing seven minutes in the third quarter, and he did not return. He scored eight points in 16 minutes. FIRST ROAD GAME: Hornets rookie J.R. Smith got out to a fast start in his first road game, making two of his first three shots. But he played only seven minutes in the first half because Scott wanted to get a longer look at backups competing for roster spots. After sitting out the second quarter, Smith could not regain his shooting touch during the third quarter. He missed all four shots, including two 3-pointers. In Wednesday's preseason opener, Smith scored a team-high 19 points on 6-of-9 shooting. POINT GUARD BATTLE: Five point guards are fighting for possibly one spot on the Bulls' roster. Among those competing is former Salmen star Chris Duhon, who played at Duke and was the Bulls' second-round draft pick in June. Duhon is battling Mike Wilks and Jannero Pargo for the spot, while starter Kirk Hinrich and first-round draft pick Ben Gordon are locks. "We like the things that he has done," Bulls coach Scott Skiles said. "He has good command of the team when he's on the floor." Duhon may have put himself ahead in the race by playing exceptionally well during the third quarter, when he made two of three shots, grabbed three rebounds and had three assists. ENDURANCE TEST: The Hornets have their first back-to-back set tonight, but Scott doesn't anticipate any problems. "The veterans are used to playing 30 to 35 minutes a game and now they're playing 20, so back-to-back is not that big of a deal, especially now when they're getting only 20," Scott said. "But it's a wait-and-see attitude for the younger guys, especially those who played 20-plus minutes (Friday)." LONG LOOK: Rookie forward Nate Williams and Britton Johnsen did not play in Wednesday's preseason opener against Dallas. But they got plenty of action against the Bulls. Johnsen was the first backup Scott put in the game, and he airballed his first shot. Williams showed a little more consistency as a shooter, sinking his first two jumpers. Johnsen played 34 minutes and scored 11 points, and Williams played 13 minutes. Junior Arrington played 31 minutes and scored 12 points. QUICK SHOTS: Former Hornets strength coordinator Marc Boff is now the Bulls' assistant athletic trainer. . . . Forward Rodney Rogers dressed but did not play because of a strained hamstring. David Wesley missed his second consecutive preseason game because of a hamstring injury. . . . . . . .
