Since signing a 10-day hardship contract with Sacramento last week, Jeffries has appeared in three games and has averaged 10.3 points, 1.7 rebounds and 1.3 three-pointers in 20.0 minutes.

Strong showing off bench Jeffries posted 15 points (6-9 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds and one assist over 27 minutes during the Kings' 123-113 loss to the Hawks on Saturday.

Impact Jeffries gave the Kings a bit of a spark with 12 points in the second half (including seven in the fourth quarter) to lead the bench in scoring and the team with a plus-eight point differential. It was his second outing with Sacramento after signing a 10-day hardship contract Thursday, and the Tulsa product should continue to see meaningful playing time off the bench, given the plethora of Kings players sidelined due to injury.

Waived by Charlotte The Hornets waived Jeffries on Thursday, Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.

Impact Jeffries was slated to earn $2.7 million in 2025-26, but his contract wasn't guaranteed. With the Hornets adding a handful of rookies to the mix, as well as some veterans such as Collin Sexton and Spencer Dinwiddie, Jeffries became expendable. Charlotte's roster is now sitting at 20 players with training camp looming.

Jeffries reached double figures in scoring in 10 outings this season, connecting on three or more threes on eight occasions.

In seven games over the past two weeks, he has averaged 11.1 points, 3.3 rebounds, 1.0 blocks and 2.1 three-pointers in 28.0 minutes per game.

Poor shooting night in rout Jeffries supplied five points (2-11 FG, 1-6 3Pt), five rebounds, three assists and two blocks over 36 minutes during Sunday's 123-88 loss to the Clippers.

Impact Although Jeffries logged a team-high 36 minutes in Sunday's rout, he failed to make a big impact in the box score. Jeffries has carved out a stable role in Charlotte's rotation of late, although it hasn't translated to much fantasy value. Over his past seven games, Jeffries has averaged 8.7 points, 1.9 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 1.0 blocks and 1.7 three-pointers in 29.4 minutes.

Notches career-high 20 points Jeffries provided 20 points (8-15 FG, 4-9 3Pt), one assist and two blocks in 32 minutes before fouling out of Wednesday's 123-110 loss to the Hawks.

Impact Jeffries recorded a career-high 20 points in the loss, eclipsing 30 minutes for the second game in a row. Fantasy managers may need to see more performances like this before jumping onboard, as this was certainly an outlier. Over his last seven games, Jeffries holds averages of 6.4 points, 1.9 rebounds, 1.0 assists, 0.7 blocks and 1.1 three-pointers in 23.4 minutes.
