Keegan Murray's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Sacramento Kings forward Keegan Murray (ankle) is questionable for Saturday's game versus the Lakers. The 24-year-old has been dealing with left ankle soreness of late. It kept him out of a recent meeting with the Nuggets. However, he was back on the floor against the Lakers on Thursday night, the first of consecutive games between the clubs. Sacramento will face Indiana on Sunday evening, so Murray could sit this one out to rest. If that's the case, Doug McDermott, amassing 16 points when Murray was out versus Denver, could find himself back in the starting lineup. But with Trey Lyles (calf), who is questionable, potentially returning from a 10-game layoff, McDermott could see less than the 27 minutes he received on Thursday, significantly lowering his fantasy ceiling and streaming value.

According to Sean Cunningham of Fox 40 Sacramento, Sacramento Kings forwardKeegan Murray(ankle)is available to suit up for Thursday's matchup with the Los Angeles Lakers.

Murray missed his first game of the season on Monday, and his status for Thursday's matchup against the Lakers remains uncertain. Fantasy managers should monitor updates as more clarity emerges.

Sacramento Kings forward Keegan Murray (ankle) has officially been ruled out of Monday night's game against the Nuggets. Murray has been dealing with ankle soreness that will now force him to miss his first game of the season. With the 24-year-old inactive, and Kevin Huerter being ruled out with a left AC joint sprain, Sacramento will be missing two important three point threats. Expect them to turn to either Doug McDermott or Jae Crowder, or potentially both, to pick up the slack. The more likely option to get more playing time and volume tonight is McDermott, who averaged 15 minutes per game through a six-game stretch in November, though he only averaged 5.0 PPG on 5.3 FGA in that stretch. Both McDermott and Crowder will be volatile fantasy and DFS options on Monday.

If the 24-year-old is unable to step on the court this evening, Doug McDermott and Jae Crowder could soak up some of the extra minutes available.
