Plays two minutes in loss Fultz closed with no counting stats in two minutes during Wednesday's 120-106 Play-In Game loss to the Mavericks.

Impact Fultz's season with the Kings comes to an end in disappointing fashion, as he didn't see much action in the Play-In Game loss to Dallas on Wednesday. The former No. 1 overall pick played 21 games for Sacramento and rarely saw the floor, averaging just 8.8 minutes per game over that span.

Plays well in limited minutes Fultz racked up eight points (3-4 FG, 2-2 3Pt), one rebound and two assists over 11 minutes during Monday's 113-95 loss to the Celtics.

Impact This was Fultz's fifth game of the season with double-digit minutes, as extended opportunities continue to be few and far between. In 14 total appearances, Fultz has played an average of 7.7 minutes per contest.

Notches six points Fultz logged six points (3-5 FG), one rebound, four assists and one steal over 16 minutes during Monday's 122-98 win over the Mavericks.

Impact Making his fifth appearance with the Kings, Fultz put up a solid performance in limited action. He's hitting 57.9 percent from the field with his new team, but until his workload trends up significantly, he'll be a tough sell in fantasy formats while Malik Monk and Zach LaVine are healthy.

Recalled by Sacramento Sacramento recalled Fultz from the G League's Stockton Kings on Sunday, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports.

Impact Fultz was assigned to Stockton on Saturday to get some additional practice. Now back with the parent club, he'll be available for the Kings' next game against the Hornets on Monday. Fultz signed with Sacramento prior to the All-Star break and made his Kings' debut against the Warriors on Friday, finishing with eight points and one assist over 10 minutes.

Assigned to Stockton Fultz has been assigned to the Stockton Kings of the G League on Saturday, Sean Cunningham of Fox 40 Sacramento reports.

Impact Fultz made his debut with Sacramento on Friday, tallying eight points and one assist across 10 minutes in a loss to the Warriors, but he'll spend the next few days with Stockton. It seems this move was to give Fultz some extra time for practice and scrimmage, as Stockton doesn't play until Wednesday, Feb. 26.

Nets eight points in team debut Fultz provided eight points (4-5 FG) and one assist across 10 minutes during Friday's 132-108 loss to Golden State.

Impact Fultz's shot was dialed in during limited action. The former Orlando guard played in his first game of the season after sitting as a free agent before the Kings picked him up. While Fultz was looking for a suitable spot to re-ignite his career, his impact will be minimal in a crowded depth chart that will keep him with the second and third unit.

Signs deal with Kings Fultz signed a contract with Sacramento on Wednesday, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

Impact Fultz is set for his first NBA action since May 2024, and he has a legitimate chance to earn the backup point guard role in Sacramento after the Kings shipped out De'Aaron Fox and Davion Mitchell near the trade deadline. Since making those trades, Malik Monk has been starting at the one. Fultz, the No. 1 pick in the 2017 NBA draft, had spent the previous five seasons with Orlando before going unsigned last offseason. He averaged 7.8 points, 3.2 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 1.0 steals across 21.2 minutes per game in the 2023-24 regular season and was part of the Magic's playoff rotation.
