GAME LOG
Lakers' loss proves how badly Kings need to grow in a clutch area The Sacramento Kings' inconsistency on defense continues to be their greatest weakness and that's not going to get better any time soon.
DECEMBER 30, 2025 • AROYALPAIN.COM
Zach LaVine - Ruled out for Tuesday LaVine (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Clippers.
Impact LaVine will miss his seventh straight game due to a left ankle sprain, and he can be considered doubtful ahead of Thursday's game against the Celtics until the Kings offer an update on his status. With the veteran swingman sidelined, Nique Clifford and Keon Ellis are candidates for increased minutes.
DECEMBER 30, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Drew Eubanks - Set for Tuesday return Eubanks (thumb) has been cleared to play Tuesday against the Clippers
Impact Eubanks will be available to make his first appearance since Dec. 11 after suffering a left thumb avulsion fracture. He figures to be on a restriction in his first game or two back, but his return will presumably eat into Dylan Cardwell's playing time.
DECEMBER 30, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Devin Carter - Available to play Tuesday Carter (ankle) is not on the injury report and is available for Tuesday's game against the Clippers.
Impact Carter is set to return to the hardwood after missing the Kings' last three games due to a left ankle sprain. The second-year guard will continue to see minutes off the bench, so his fantasy upside will remain relatively low in a secondary role on a struggling offense.
DECEMBER 30, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Keegan Murray - Questionable to play Tuesday Murray (calf) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Clippers.
Impact Murray might have a shot at returning to action a bit earlier than initially expected, though a final call on his status will be made closer to Tuesday's 11 p.m. ET tipoff. Nique Clifford and Keon Ellis would be in line to see a decrease in minutes if Murray is able to return against the Clippers. The fourth-year forward is averaging 12.7 points, 6.0 rebounds and 1.2 assists per game since the beginning of December.

Trae Young Next Team Odds: Will Hawks Part Ways with Star PG?
Malik Monk - Muted role continues Monk had 11 points (4-10 FG, 3-9 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists and one steal in 19 minutes during Sunday's 125-101 loss to the Lakers.
Impact While Monk did hit double digits in scoring, his playing time remains discouraging. The veteran guard has averaged 7.3 points, 1.5 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.0 steals in 14.3 minutes per contest across his last four games, and it wouldn't be shocking if the Kings explored trade options for Monk later this year.
DECEMBER 29, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Dennis Schröder - Team-high seven assists Sunday Schroder ended with 11 points (3-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 5-6 FT), two rebounds, seven assists, one block and two steals across 19 minutes during Sunday's 125-101 loss to the Lakers.
Impact Although Schroder remains stuck in a bench role, he's providing solid fantasy value behind Russell Westbrook. Schroder has averaged 14.1 points, 5.7 assists, 3.0 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 24.4 minutes per contest over his last seven games.

Kings' loss to the Lakers highlight a major problem that's nearly impossible to fix The Sacramento Kings lost to the Los Angeles Lakers thanks to their superstars, something the Kings do not have.
DECEMBER 29, 2025 • AROYALPAIN.COM
Dylan Cardwell - Fares well off bench Cardwell closed with seven points (3-4 FG, 1-3 FT), seven rebounds and three steals in 24 minutes during Sunday's 125-101 loss to the Lakers.
Impact With Domantas Sabonis (knee) on the shelf indefinitely, Cardwell has emerged as a quality low-end pickup in fantasy hoops. Over his last six games, he's averaging 5.0 points, 6.7 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 1.2 steals and 2.2 blocks in 21.5 minutes per contest.

Clippers vs. Kings Prediction, Odds, Picks - Dec. 30
Russell Westbrook - Tepid with 13 points in loss Westbrook closed with 13 points (6-17 FG, 1-5 3Pt), five rebounds, four assists and two steals across 26 minutes during Sunday's 125-101 loss to the Lakers.
Impact The Kings have become dependent on Westbrook's offensive spark, but he was unable to deliver his usual pop during Sunday's loss. He also saw a minute decrease once the game was out of hand, which contributed to the regression. He'll try to bounce back against the Clippers on Tuesday.
DECEMBER 29, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Maxime Raynaud - Logs solid double-double in loss Raynaud logged 16 points (8-10 FG, 0-1 FT), 10 rebounds and two assists in 35 minutes during Sunday's 125-101 loss to the Lakers.
Impact Raynaud is making the most of his moment as Sacramento's temporary replacement for Domantas Sabonis, and he's cementing his profile as the best solution under the basket after an uninspiring turn from Drew Eubanks (thumb). Raynaud is a favorite to retain the role when Eubanks returns, and he will be an intriguing waiver add to consider for the month of January.
DECEMBER 29, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
DeMar DeRozan - Posts team-high 22 points in loss DeRozan supplied 22 points (8-17 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 5-5 FT), four rebounds, five assists and one steal over 34 minutes during Sunday's 125-101 loss to the Lakers.
Impact DeRozan is doing his best to prop up the backcourt during Zach LaVine's (ankle) absence, and he's been the team's highest producer often over the past couple of weeks. Although the team continues to occupy the basement in the Western Conference, DeRozan has averaged an excellent 20.2 points, 3.0 rebounds and 2.3 assists over 23 games.
