Impact Carter entered the starting lineup for the first time this season with Russell Westbrook (ankle), Zach LaVine (finger) and Malik Monk (illness) all sidelined. Carter responded by posting his best scoring performance of the campaign while finishing second on his team in scoring behind DeMar DeRozan. The Providence product is now averaging 14.6 points, 4.4 rebounds and 4.2 assists over his last five games.

Starting Wednesday Carter will start Wednesday against the Jazz, Brenden Nunes of KHTK Sactown Sports 1140 reports.

Impact Russell Westbrook (ankle), Zach LaVine (finger) and Malik Monk (illness) are all unavailable for Wednesday's game, so Carter will draw the first start of his career. The rookie has been heating up over the past three games, churning out averages of 14.7 points, 4.0 assists and 1.0 steals per contest, so he's worth a look as a potential streamer in deep leagues with the increased opportunity Wednesday evening.

Hits for 18 points Carter recorded 18 points (6-13 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 4-5 FT), four rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal over 27 minutes during Saturday's 132-126 loss to the Cavaliers.

Impact Carter saw more time on the court due to Zach LaVine's (finger) absence, and the Kings seem content to kick the tires for depth ahead of the break. The 2024 first-round pick hasn't done much in his second season with the Kings, but the team's reluctance to include him in trade talks indicates a strong desire to keep him in the fold. Unless the Kings make drastic changes and choose to bench their veterans, Carter's best chances to contribute are still a season away.

Seasons-high 24 minutes Carter notched 10 points (5-12 FG, 0-6 3Pt), six rebounds, five assists, one block and one steal across 24 minutes during Wednesday's 129-125 loss to Memphis.

Impact Carter had his best outing of the season, chipping in across most major categories. Sacramento is in disarray at the moment, making it almost impossible to project fantasy value. With that said, it would make sense for Carter to be prioritized at some point, meaning managers will want to keep a close eye on his role as we enter the silly season.

Rare appearance in loss Carter contributed five points (2-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt), three rebounds and two assists over 11 minutes during Friday's 112-93 loss to the Celtics.

Impact Carter shifted into the rotation, taking advantage of what ended up being another blowout loss for the Kings. While there is a chance Carter will slide into a more meaningful role at some point, that point is not now. He has seen the court only twice in the past 12 games, scoring seven points in 18 minutes. For now, he is simply a name to monitor moving forward.

Scores four points in garbage time Carter (ankle) amassed four points (2-5 FG, 0-3 3Pt) and one block in seven minutes during Tuesday's 131-90 loss to the Clippers.

Impact After having been unavailable in Sacramento's previous three games due to a left ankle sprain, Carter saw the court for just the second time since Nov. 14. The second-year guard logged all seven of his minutes in the fourth quarter of the blowout loss, and he isn't guaranteed to see the hardwood on a nightly basis moving forward.

Available to play Tuesday Carter (ankle) is not on the injury report and is available for Tuesday's game against the Clippers.

Impact Carter is set to return to the hardwood after missing the Kings' last three games due to a left ankle sprain. The second-year guard will continue to see minutes off the bench, so his fantasy upside will remain relatively low in a secondary role on a struggling offense.
