Russell Westbrook - Sitting out again Westbrook (foot) will not play Friday against the Celtics.

Impact Westbrook will sit for the second straight game. He was previously marked as questionable ahead of Thursday's game, so fantasy managers can operate under the assumption that he's day-to-day. In the meantime, Dennis Schroder is likely to take on an expanded role.

Malik Monk - Not listed on injury report Monk (ankle) is not being listed on the injury report ahead of Friday's game in Boston.

Impact Monk is set to return from a two-game layoff Friday evening, and with Russell Westbrook (foot) out, Monk could see some additional minutes and shots falling his way. The nine-year veteran has been heating up over the past five games with averages of 18.6 points, 3.2 assists, 3.8 triples and just 1.4 turnovers per contest.

Domantas Sabonis - Sitting out Friday Sabonis (rest) will not play Friday against Boston.

Impact Friday's game is the second leg of a back-to-back set, so Sabonis will sit out for maintenance reasons. In his absence, the Kings will likely lean more on Maxime Raynaud and Dylan Cardwell. Precious Achiuwa could see a slight uptick in minutes as well.

Precious Achiuwa - Pulls down 13 rebounds in loss Achiuwa ended Thursday's 113-111 loss to the 76ers with eight points (4-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt), 13 rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal across 34 minutes.

Impact Achiuwa's 13 boards were a game high, and this was his fourth game in January with at least one steal and one block. His minutes fluctuate with the matchup, so he's not much more than a rebounding specialist in deep leagues. Through 16 games in January, Achiuwa has averaged 8.1 points and 6.3 rebounds per contest.

Zach LaVine - Inefficient in bench role LaVine logged 17 points (5-16 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 5-5 FT), three assists, one rebound and two steals over 29 minutes during the Kings' 113-111 loss to the 76ers on Thursday.

Impact LaVine was cleared to return Thursday from a two-game absence due to lower-back soreness. He ended up finishing as the Kings' third-leading scorer behind Dennis Schroder (27 points) and Demar DeRozan (25 points), though LaVine connected on just 31.3 percent of his field-goal attempts during the loss. The Kings play the Celtics on Friday, so it's possible that DeRozan is rested for the second leg of the back-to-back set.

DeMar DeRozan - Dishes eight dimes vs. Sixers DeRozan recorded 25 points (9-15 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 6-8 FT), eight assists and four rebounds over 38 minutes during the Kings' 113-111 loss to the 76ers on Thursday.

Impact Coming off a zero-assist game against the Knicks on Tuesday, DeRozan was able to get his teammates more involved with a team-high eight dimes while finishing second on the team in scoring behind Dennis Schroder (27 points). Since the start of the new year, DeRozan has averaged 20.8 points, 4.4 assists, 2.9 rebounds and 1.1 steals over 33.8 minutes per game.

Dennis Schröder - Season-high 27 points in spot start Schroder posted 27 points (9-16 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one steal over 31 minutes during the Kings' 113-111 loss to the 76ers on Thursday.

Impact Schroder got the start Thursday in the absence of Russell Westbrook (foot), and the former responded by recording a season high in points. It was Schroder's eighth 20-plus point performance of the season, and he could remain in the starting lineup for the second leg of the Kings' back-to-back set Friday against the Celtics if Westbrook is not cleared to play. Schroder has averaged 16.6 points, 4.0 assists, 2.2 rebounds and 2.0 threes over 26.0 minutes per game over his last five outings.

Zach LaVine - Deployed off bench in return LaVine will come off the bench Thursday against the 76ers, Matt George of ABC 10 Sacramento reports.

Impact LaVine was removed from the injury report ahead of Thursday's matchup, but it appears the club will ease him back into action following a two-game absence due to lower-back soreness. Nique Clifford will remain in the starting lineup for the time being, though he hasn't been all that effective in two starting opportunities.

Dennis Schröder - Enters starting five Schroder is starting Thursday's game against the 76ers, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports.

Impact Schroder will step into the starting five with Russell Westbrook (foot) ruled out Thursday. This marks Schroder's first start since Nov. 12. The guard began the season in a starting role for the Kings, averaging 11.3 points, 3.3 rebounds, 6.0 assists and 1.1 steals in his first 12 appearances of the 2025-26 campaign, all starts.

Malik Monk - Ruled out Thursday Monk is out for Thursday's game against the 76ers due to right ankle soreness.

Impact Monk is sidelined for a second consecutive contest, and he's up against a short turnaround if he wants to recover in time for Friday's matchup in Boston. Russell Westbrook (foot) also won't play Thursday, forcing the Kings to divvy up the bulk of the minutes at point guard between Dennis Schroder and Keon Ellis.
