Precious Achiuwa News, Rumors, Updates - Sacramento Kings

Headed to bench Achiuwa will come off the bench for Saturday's game in Denver, Sean Cunningham of Fox 40 Sacramento reports.

Impact With Domantas Sabonis (knee) out, Achiuwa should still be able to flirt with close to 20 minutes in the reserve role, but he's a less enticing fantasy option as a member of the second unit. Achiuwa is averaging 6.4 points and 4.8 rebounds for the Kings this season.

Kings finally getting the Precious Achiuwa they signed (and fans should be excited) Precious Achiuwa is finding his rhythm with the Sacramento Kings, and he could change their game dramatically.

Just misses double-double Wednesday Achiuwa totaled 15 points (6-12 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-4 FT), nine rebounds, three assists and one steal over 26 minutes during Wednesday's 113-99 loss to Oklahoma City.

Impact The 26-year-old forward just missed collecting his second double-double of the season in eight games while setting a new season scoring high. Achiuwa has been productive since joining the Kings, averaging 9.4 points, 6.0 boards, 1.6 assists and 1.0 steals in 22.6 minutes over five starts, but he'll likely shift back to the bench once Keegan Murray (thumb) is cleared to make his season debut, which is expected to happen Thursday against the Grizzlies.

Moves to bench Achiuwa (illness) will come off the bench Sunday against the Spurs, Matt George of ABC 10 Sacramento reports.

Impact Achiuwa shook off a questionable tag for this game, but the Kings will make another rotation tweak as they desperately try to turn their season around. Keon Ellis will join the starting five in Achiuwa's place, with the team going with a much smaller and faster look.

Available Sunday Achiuwa (illness) is available for Sunday's game against the Spurs, Chris Biderman of The Sacramento Bee reports.

Impact Achiuwa will shed his questionable tag due to illness and suit up against San Antonio. Over his last five outings (four starts), he has averaged 7.2 points and 5.0 rebounds in 20.8 minutes per contest.

NOVEMBER 16, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Iffy for Sunday Achiuwa is questionable for Sunday's game against the Spurs due to an illness.

Impact The Kings might be very depleted in their frontcourt since Domantas Sabonis (ribs) and Achiuwa are questionable to play Sunday. Plus, Keegan Murray (thumb) is also out. Achiuwa's absence shouldn't be much of an issue in fantasy, though, as he's averaging a mere 6.7 points and 4.7 rebounds per game across six appearances (four starts) this season. He's started in each of Sacramento's last four games, and if he's out, Nique Clifford or Doug McDermott would be in line for more playing time.

Jalen Johnson's double-double leads Hawks past Kings 133-100

Jalen Johnson had 24 points, 10 rebounds and eight assists as the Atlanta Hawks routed the slumping Sacramento Kings 133-100

NOVEMBER 13, 2025 • Associated Press

Double-double in Sunday's loss Achiuwa ended with 12 points (5-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 10 rebounds and one block in 29 minutes during Sunday's 144-117 loss to the Timberwolves.

Impact Making his first start for the Kings after signing with the team last week, Achiuwa produced his first double-double in three games as he saw a significant bump in his workload. Keegan Murray (thumb) still doesn't have a clear timeline for his return, so Achiuwa figures to hold down the fort at the four until he's cleared to get back on the court.

Starting Sunday Achiuwa will start Sunday's game against the Timberwolves, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports.

Impact Achiuwa will enter the starting lineup in just his third game since joining the team. In his previous two games, he averaged 4.0 points and 3.5 rebounds in 13.0 minutes per contest, although he should see an expanded role Sunday.

NOVEMBER 10, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Logs nine minutes in team-debut Achiuwa supplied four points (2-2 FG), three rebounds and one block across nine minutes during Wednesday's 121-116 victory over the Warriors.

Impact Achiuwa saw his first action of the season, logging nine minutes after signing with the Kings earlier in the week. Drew Eubanks was given the starting nod with Domantas Sabonis (ribs) ruled out, with Achiuwa playing as the backup. Unless he supplants Eubanks in the rotation, there is no reason to consider him a viable fantasy asset.

Set to join Kings The Kings agreed to a deal with Achiuwa on Tuesday, ESPN's Shams Charania reports.

Impact After failing to make Miami's final roster, Achiuwa will land on his feet in Sacramento in what could be a good opportunity for him given the lack of frontcourt depth there. To make room for Achiuwa, the Kings will waive Isaac Jones. With Achiuwa's versatility and experience, he will have a good chance of carving out a role behind Domantas Sabonis.

Will be waived by Miami The Heat will waive Achiuwa, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Impact The Heat don't have a ton of depth behind Bam Adebayo and Kel'el Ware, so this move is somewhat surprising. Achiuwa is a solid rebounder and defender, so he should be able to find another contract with an NBA club.

Logs nine minutes in preseason loss Achiuwa totaled four points (2-4 FG) and six rebounds in nine minutes during Monday's preseason loss to the Hawks.

Impact After agreeing to a one-year deal with the Heat during the offseason, Achiuwa will likely be battling for backup center minutes. Across four preseason appearances, Achiuwa has offered very little during his time on the court, averaging 4.7 points, 5.3 rebounds and 0.7 blocks.

Achiuwa will give the Heat some much-needed depth behind Bam Adebayo and Kel'el Ware.
