Kings' Malik Monk: Iffy for Tuesday
Monk (groin) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Bucks.
Monk is in danger of missing his first contest since Nov. 24 due to right groin soreness. The 26-year-old has carved out a significant role in the starting five this season, and if he's sidelined, Keon Ellis and Kevin Huerter are candidates for increased roles. Over his last five outings, Monk has averaged 24.0 points, 8.2 assists, 4.2 rebounds and 2.0 steals in 37.0 minutes per contest.

Kings' Keon Ellis: Leads bench in scoring in victory
Ellis supplied eight points (3-5 FG, 2-4 3Pt), two rebounds and one steal in 20 minutes during Sunday's 124-119 win over the Bulls.
Ellis was back on the Kings bench Sunday due to the return of De'Aaron Fox (hip), leading all second-unit players in scoring during a bench-leading minute total in a winning effort. Ellis has provided a nice lift to Sacramento as of late, posting at least eight points in four of his last five contests and in 16 outings so far this season.

Kings' Domantas Sabonis: Dominates in paint in victory
Sabonis provided 22 points (8-11 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 5-6 FT), 16 rebounds, eight assists and one block across 38 minutes during Sunday's 124-119 victory over the Bulls.
Sabonis once again did it all for Sacramento in Sunday's contest, leading all players in rebounds while finishing as one of three players with 20 or more points and ending two assists short of a triple-double. Sabonis has recorded at least 20 points, 10 rebounds and five assists in 10 outings this season, doing so in three of his last four contests.

Kings' Malik Monk: Flirts with triple-double in win
Monk closed Sunday's 124-119 win over the Bulls with 18 points (7-18 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 3-3 FT), eight rebounds, nine assists and two steals across 37 minutes.
Monk did a little bit of everything for Sacramento in the starting lineup Sunday, leading all players in assists and steals while finishing as one of four players with 15 or more points and coming up one dime and two rebounds shy of a triple-double. Monk posted his sixth game of the season with at least 15 points, five rebounds and five assists while securing at least 18 points or a sixth straight outing.

Kings' De'Aaron Fox: Scores efficiently in return
Fox (glute) recorded 26 points (9-16 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 4-5 FT), nine rebounds, three assists and one block across 33 minutes in Sunday's 124-119 win over the Bulls.
In his return from a three-game absence due to a bruised right glute, Fox ceded more of the distribution responsibilities to backcourt mate Malik Monk (team-high nine assists), but Fox made up for the atypically low assist count by displaying some rare hot shooting from three-point land. Considering Fox came into the contest converting only 32.1 percent of his three-point attempts on the season, fantasy managers shouldn't count on him providing more than one or two triples in most contests, but more importantly, the 27-year-old guard looked healthy and composed in his return to the court. Managers can feel safe in rolling out Fox for the Kings' upcoming three-game week.

Kings' Keon Ellis: Slides to bench Sunday
Ellis will come off the bench in Sunday's game against the Bulls, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports.
With De'Aaron Fox (hip) returning to game action, Ellis will retreat to the bench. The 25-year-old started in each of the club's last five outings with Fox and Keegan Murray each sidelined at some point, during which Ellis had averaged 11.2 points, 3.4 rebounds, 3.0 steals and 2.4 assists in 33.6 minutes per contest.

Kings' De'Aaron Fox: Will return Sunday
Fox (hip) is available for Sunday's game against the Bulls.
Fox has been upgraded from questionable to available and will return to action following a three-game absence due to a right glute contusion. Fox's return will send Keon Ellis back to the bench, while Malik Monk's usage will take a hit. Before the injury, Fox scored at least 23 points in nine straight games, averaging 28.3 points, 6.3 assists, 4.6 rebounds and 1.4 steals in 37.6 minutes a night during that stretch.

Kings' De'Aaron Fox: Questionable to play Sunday
Fox (hip) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bulls.
Fox has missed the Kings' last three games due to a right glute contusion. He was able to participate in the Kings' shootaround before Friday's game against the Celtics, but he wasn't able to progress enough in his recovery to play. Keon Ellis would remain in the starting lineup and Malik Monk would continue to see a larger role on offense if Fox is unable to play Sunday.

Kings' Trey Lyles: Hauls in 11 rebounds off bench
Lyles amassed seven points (2-5 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 11 rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal in 28 minutes during Friday's 114-97 victory over the Celtics.
Although Lyles fell just three points short of his second double-double of the campaign, he was still able to haul in double-digit rebounds for the first time since a Nov. 18 loss to Atlanta. The 29-year-old veteran big man has quietly been very effective off Sacramento's bench over his last eight appearances, as he's averaged 11.0 points, 7.0 rebounds, 1.1 assists, 0.9 steals and 2.3 threes in 24.9 minutes while shooting 43.9 percent from three-point land. Lyles is worth streaming in most fantasy leagues while he's hot, but his upside will remain capped by the presence of a healthy Domantas Sabonis.

Kings' Malik Monk: Continues to fill in admirably
Monk logged 22 points (9-24 FG, 3-11 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, eight assists, one block and one steal over 37 minutes during Friday's 114-97 win over the Celtics.
Operating as Sacramento's point guard for the injured De'Aaron Fox (glute) for a third straight contest, Monk continued to fill in admirably with 22 points and eight assists to go with a full stat line Friday. The streaky Monk appears to be on a heater at the moment, as the 26-year-old is averaging 22.3 points, 7.3 assists, 4.0 rebounds, 1.4 steals and 2.7 threes across his last seven contests. If Fox is unable to suit up for the Kings on Sunday against the Bulls, Monk would figure to continue handling an expanded role as one of the team's top playmakers alongside Domantas Sabonis and DeMar DeRozan.

Kings' Domantas Sabonis: Pulls down career-high 28 rebounds
Sabonis registered 23 points (10-15 FG, 3-4 3Pt), 28 rebounds, three assists and one block over 39 minutes during Friday's 114-97 victory over the Celtics.
Sabonis amassed the most rebounds of any player in a single game so far in 2024-25, dominating with a career-high 28 boards against one of the league's premier frontcourt duos of Jayson Tatum and Kristaps Porzingis. Over his last seven games, Sabonis is averaging 18.7 points, 16.9 rebounds, 6.9 assists, 0.9 blocks and 1.6 threes. The 28-year-old star big man now has 33 double-doubles in 35 games for the Kings this season, and Sabonis should continue to receive a bump in usage if De'Aaron Fox (glute) remains sidelined for Sunday's soft matchup with the Bulls, who rank 29th in the league in opponent points per game (120.8).

Kings' De'Aaron Fox: Slated to miss another contest
Fox (glute) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Celtics.
Despite participating during Friday's morning shootaround, Fox has been downgraded from questionable to out and will miss a third straight game. Keon Ellis should draw another start in Fox's absence, while Kevin Huerter and Devin Carter will also see additional minutes. However, Malik Monk has been the primary beneficiary thus far, averaging 26.7 points, 8.0 assists, 3.3 rebounds and 2.3 steals in 37.0 minutes over his last three appearances. Fox's next chance to suit up will come Sunday in Chicago.

Kings' Colby Jones: Back from G League
The Kings recalled Jones from the G League's Stockton Kings on Thursday.
Jones will rejoin the parent club ahead of its matchup with the Celtics on Friday. The 22-year-old has appeared in 10 of the Kings' last 17 games since Dec. 1, averaging 1.2 points and 1.3 rebounds in 7.4 minutes per contest.
