Impact Westbrook has been sidelined with what was previously reported as right foot soreness, but an MRI revealed that the injury is in the first toe of his right foot. Without an established timeline to return and the Kings eliminated from postseason contention, it's possible that the 2016-17 MVP could be sidelined for the rest of the regular season.

Quiet scoring night in blowout loss Westbrook registered 11 points (4-10 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 1-4 FT), three rebounds, eight assists, two blocks and one steal in 27 minutes during Thursday's 139-118 loss to Philadelphia.

Impact Westbrook struggled to get much going on the glass for a second straight game, finishing with just three boards after recording just one rebound in his previous outing. While his scoring and rebounding have dipped recently, the veteran guard remains the primary engine for Sacramento's offense, as he has now reached at least eight assists in six consecutive appearances. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on his status for the remainder of the season; as the Kings look to secure a higher lottery pick, Westbrook will likely continue to miss games here and there as part of the team's tanking strategy.
