TREY LYLES NEWS

Reevaluated in two weeks Lyeles (knee) is expected to be reevaluated in two weeks due to an MCL sprain, Frankie Cartoscelli of KHTK Sactown Sports 1140 reports.

Impact The injury occurred in the second quarter of Tuesday's loss to the Bucks. Given his two week timeline, Lyles will presumably miss at least eight games. In his absence, Kessler Edwards and Alex Len could potentially see some more reserve minutes in the frontcourt.

Doesn't practice Thursday Lyles (knee) didn't participate in Thursday's practice but did put up flat-footed shots afterwards, Sean Cunningham of Fox 40 Sacramento reports.

Impact Lyles missed Sacramento's previous contest due to a left knee sprain. Lyle's inability to practice is a bad sign of his availability for Saturday's matchup with the Knicks.

MARCH 15, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play Wednesday Lyles (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Lakers.

Impact Lyles left Tuesday's win over the Bucks early after bumping knees with Brook Lopez on a rebound, and the former will miss at least one additional game after being diagnosed with a left knee sprain. The veteran's next chance to suit up will come Saturday versus the Knicks.

MARCH 13, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Out for remainder of game Lyles won't return to Tuesday's game versus the Bucks due to a left knee injury. He will finish the contest with zero points (0-2 FG, 0-2 3Pt) and four rebounds in eight minutes

Impact With Keegan Murray (knee) already out, Alex Len and Kessler Edwards are candidates to receive increased minutes in Lyle's absence. Lyle's next chance to suit up is Wednesday's matchup with the Lakers.

Gets boards in win Lyles chipped in seven points (3-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds and one assist across 30 minutes during Wednesday's 130-120 win over the Lakers.

Impact Lyles is averaging 5.6 points and 4.0 rebounds while shooting 22.2 percent from three in 20.0 minutes since the All-Star break. This is a far cry to his first 39 games played this season where the forward averaged 7.6 points and 4.5 rebounds on 40.5 percent from deep in 20.0 minutes. Due to the lack of depth at the forward position, expect Lyles to continue receiving opportunities off the bench.

Questionable for Wednesday Lyles (illness) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Nuggets.

Impact Lyles missed Tuesday's game due to illness, and his minutes were divvied up between Harrison Barnes, Alex Len and Kessler Edwards. It'll be more of the same if he's out again Wednesday, but with no shootaround on the second leg of a back-to-back, Lyles will essentially be a game-time call.

FEBRUARY 14, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Will not play Tuesday Lyles (illness) will not play in Tuesday's game against the Suns.

Impact This will be Lyles' first missed game since Jan. 7. The Kings also play Wednesday versus the Nuggets, but it remains to be seen if Lyles will be able to return for that contest. In the meantime, the Kings will likely need Harrison Barnes and Keegan Murray to soak up even more minutes.

Appears on injury report Lyles is questionable for Tuesday's game against Phoenix due to an illness.

Impact Lyles being added to Tuesday's injury report in advance of a 10 p.m ET start time versus the Suns puts his status in doubt. Chris Duarte (ankle) has been cleared for action, so he could enter the rotation while Keegan Murray would likely see sizable run if Lyles cannot suit up.

Out Sunday Lyles (ankle) will not play Sunday against the New Orleans, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports.

Impact A right ankle sprain will cause Lyles his first absence since returning from a calf injury on Nov. 20. Sacramento's rotation is fully healthy otherwise, shifting bumps in usage to Keegan Murray, Chris Duarte and Sasha Vezenkov.

Questionable to play Sunday Lyles is questionable to play Sunday against the Pelicans due to a right ankle sprain.

Impact Lyles has been a steady presence off the bench for the Kings since making his season debut on Nov. 22, but his potential absence shouldn't mean much from a fantasy perspective. He's averaging 19.5 minutes per game over his last 10 contests, a span in which he's putting up 8.3 points, 3.8 rebounds and 1.1 assists per game.

JANUARY 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Modest role continues Lyles ended Tuesday's 111-104 loss to the Hornets with nine points (3-6 FG, 3-5 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist in 17 minutes.

Impact After a calf injury delayed his start, Lyles made his season debut Nov. 22, and his role has been steady since. He's averaging 7.2 points, 5.1 rebounds and 1.4 assists in 19.7 minutes per game. However, barring an injury to Harrison Barnes or Keegan Murray, Lyles' modest reserve role isn't likely to change.

JANUARY 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Impact Lyles told reporters that he was planning to play all along, but he had to wait for clearance from the medical staff after warmups. Through four December games, Lyles has averaged 7.4 points, 4.6 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 1.2 three-pointers.

Battling illness Lyles is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Thunder with a non-COVID illness.

Impact Lyles popped up on the Kings' initial injury report for Thursday's tilt with an illness. If he were to miss the contest, JaVale McGee and Kessler Edwards could see more action.

DECEMBER 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Off injury report Lyles (ankle) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Monday's game against the Pelicans.

Impact Lyles was originally ruled out for Saturday's game against the Nuggets due to an ankle issue, but he ended up playing, posting seven points, four rebounds and an assist across 17 minutes. Lyles is not listed on the injury report for Monday's game, so he should be good to go barring any setbacks.

DECEMBER 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Out Saturday Lyles is listed as out for Saturday's game against the Nuggets due to a right ankle sprain, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

Impact It is unclear when exactly Lyles picked up the injury, but his status Saturday is in question as a result. JaVale McGee would be in line for extra depth minutes at center should Lyles ultimately be unable to go.

DECEMBER 2, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Near double-double in debut Lyles produced 12 points (4-8 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 1-1 FT) and eight rebounds across 28 minutes during Wednesday's 117-112 loss to the Pelicans.

Impact A calf injury sidelined Lyles to start the campaign, but he was cleared to make his season debut Wednesday and saw extended action with Keegan Murray (back) unavailable. Across 74 appearances last year, Lyles averaged 7.6 points and 4.1 rebounds in 16.9 minutes per game, but he may see a boost in playing time this year until Murray is cleared to return. Either way, Lyles' injury appears to be in the rearview mirror, and he has a clear path to a consistent bench role moving forward.
