Malik Monk - Chips in nine points Monk totaled nine points (3-9 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), two rebounds, three assists and one steal in 21 minutes during Sunday's 114-108 loss to Miami.

Impact Monk continues to occupy a reserve role for the rebuilding Kings, playing 18 minutes or greater in four straight games. The veteran swingman is likely to see his name swirl around in trade rumors throughout the course of the season.

2026 NBA Finals Odds: Spurs Favored; Is Philly For Real?

De'Andre Hunter - Chips in 14 in Sunday's loss Hunter closed with 14 points (4-11 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds and one assist in 31 minutes during Sunday's 114-108 loss to the Heat.

Impact The veteran forward missed the Kings' prior game Friday with an illness, but Hunter seemed his usual self Sunday. After a sluggish start to the season he's scored at least 14 points in five of his last six contests, averaging 16.8 points, 4.3 boards, 2.3 threes and 1.3 assists in 34.5 minutes.

Keegan Murray - Comes off bench in return Murray contributed 10 points (3-10 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), one rebound, two assists, one block and two steals in 23 minutes off the bench during Sunday's 114-108 loss to the Heat.

Impact The 26-year-old missed the prior seven games with an ankle injury, and Murray got eased into the lineup Sunday on the second unit while Precious Achiuwa got another start at power forward. The duo could switch roles as soon as Tuesday in a home game against the Magic, but with Domantas Sabonis (knee) not 100 percent himself, there may be room for both Murray and Achiuwa in the frontcourt in the short term.

Precious Achiuwa - Big night on glass in loss Achiuwa produced seven points (3-5 FG, 1-2 FT), 14 rebounds, two assists and one block across 36 minutes during Sunday's 114-108 loss to Miami.

Impact The 14 boards led all players on the night, but the Kings didn't give enough offensive support to rookie Darius Acuff and his game-high 32 points to actually secure a win. Achiuwa has started eight straight games, averaging 9.4 points, 7.0 rebounds, 1.5 blocks, 1.1 assists and 1.1 steals in 27.5 minutes, but he figures to return to the bench fairly soon with Keegan Murray back in the lineup Sunday, and Domantas Sabonis (knee) not expected to miss much time.

Darius Acuff Jr. - Strong double-double in loss Acuff recorded 32 points (11-21 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 7-7 FT), 10 assists, five rebounds and a steal in 39 minutes during Sunday's 114-108 loss to the Heat.

Impact Acuff continues to impress to begin his rookie campaign, racking up a game-high 32 points. Sunday marked the fourth time Acuff has scored at least 30 points in his first 10 games. The 19-year-old also flashed his playmaking ability, dishing 10 assists to secure his third career double-double. Acuff has scored at least 20 points in each of his last six appearances, averaging 28.8 points, 9.2 assists, 4.5 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 38.2 minutes per contest over that stretch.

Giannis Antetokounmpo scores 29 points to lead the Heat to a 114-108 win over the struggling Kings

Giannis Antetokounmpo had 29 points, 14 rebounds, and three assists in the Miami Heat’s 114-108 win over the Sacramento Kings on Sunday

Dylan Cardwell - Starting against Miami Cardwell will start in Sunday's game against the Heat.

Impact With Domantas Sabonis (knee) ruled out, Cardwell will start for the first time in 2026-27. The 24-year-old has only started one other time in his career, amassing two points and one rebound in the 135-133 win over the Bucks a little over a year ago.

18 HOURS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Domantas Sabonis - Out Sunday Sabonis (knee) is out for Sunday's game against the Heat.

Impact Sabonis was a late addition to the injury report due to left knee soreness, and he will be unavailable for Sunday's contest. Dylan Cardwell and Precious Achiuwa are candidates for increased playing time in his absence.

19 HOURS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Domantas Sabonis - Downgraded to questionable Sunday Sabonis has been downgraded to questionable for Sunday's game against Miami due to left knee soreness.

Impact Sabonis was a late addition to the injury report and could miss his first game of the season. If the veteran center joins Maxime Raynaud (knee) on the inactive list, Dylan Cardwell and Precious Achiuwa would be candidates for increased playing time.

21 HOURS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Keegan Murray - Returning versus Miami Murray (ankle) is available for Sunday's game against the Heat.

Impact Murray last played in the 128-120 loss to Portland on Oct. 23. Since then, he's been on the shelf due to left ankle capsulitis. While Murray may come off the bench in his first game back, he will likely reclaim his spot in the starting lineup soon, resulting in Precious Achiuwa reverting to a reserve role.

23 HOURS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Alex Karaban - Recalled by Sacramento Sacramento recalled Karaban from the G League's Stockton Kings on Saturday.

Impact Karaban has recorded limited production across five appearances off the second unit during his debut NBA season, so he may continue to provide depth following a short assignment to the G League team. The forward will need to make the most of any minutes he's given with the parent team, though he might continue to spend time with the Stockton affiliate, where he could see more consistent opportunities in the future.

1 DAY AGO • ROTOWIRE

De'Andre Hunter - Available to play Sunday Hunter (illness) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Sunday's game against Miami.

Impact Hunter didn't play in Friday's 124-109 loss to the Spurs, marking his first absence of the season. He will return Sunday versus the Heat, likely meaning Leaky Black will head back to the bench.

1 DAY AGO • ROTOWIRE

Keegan Murray - Questionable for Sunday Murray (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Heat.

Impact Murray hasn't played since going down with an ankle injury on Oct. 25, so if he is cleared for Sunday's game, his minutes will likely be monitored. His return would likely push Precious Achiuwa back to the second unit.

1 DAY AGO • ROTOWIRE

Alex Karaban - Headed to G League Karaban was assigned to the G League's Stockton Kings on Saturday, Matt George of ABC 10 Sacramento reports.

Impact Karaban hasn't made much of an impact with Sacramento, scoring just seven total points across five games, but he'll have more of an opportunity to perform and play meaningful minutes at the G League level.

Leaky Black - Steady in fill-in role Black contributed 12 points (4-7 FG, 4-7 3Pt), three rebounds, five assists and two steals in 40 minutes during Friday's 124-109 loss to the Spurs.

Impact Black slid into the starting lineup for De'Andre Hunter (illness) and played a team-high 40 minutes. The Kings need all the help they can get, so his encouraging line gives him a slighly better outlook as the team hunts for production.

2 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Zach LaVine - Quiet night in defeat LaVine notched 14 points (4-12 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 5-5 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one steal over 35 minutes during Friday's 124-109 loss to the Spurs.

Impact LaVine struggled to get anything going, missing five of his six three-point attempts, but a perfect night at the free-throw line kept his scoring respectable. With Darius Acuff taking over more of the offense, the veteran's role and his name in trade talk will be worth watching as Sacramento's season slips away.

2 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Darius Acuff Jr. - Collects eight assists in loss Acuff finished with 22 points (9-20 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, eight assists and two steals in 33 minutes during Friday's 124-109 loss to San Antonio.

Impact Acuff led the Kings in scoring and assists in another encouraging rookie performance. He needed 20 shots to get there, but his ability to create offense has made him one of the bright spots in a rough start for Sacramento. As the Kings lose more games, expect them to keep giving him the ball.

2 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Domantas Sabonis - Records double-double in blowout loss Sabonis registered 17 points (8-12 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 0-1 FT), 12 rebounds and five assists over 31 minutes during Friday's 124-109 loss to the Spurs.

Impact Sabonis posted another efficient double-double, making eight of 12 shots and adding five assists, which ties him with Victor Wembanyama for third in the league in double-doubles. Four turnovers hurt, and Sacramento never seriously threatened after falling behind by 19 at the half. He's still one of the league's most reliable big men, but the Kings' 1-8 start caps his potential.
