Kevin Huerter's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Sacramento Kings guard Kevin Huerter (leg) is available ahead of Saturday's game against the New York Knicks. Huerter will make his return to the court after missing the last game due to a right leg contusion. Keon Ellis figures to head back to the second unit with Huerter returning on Saturday. As a reserve player, Ellis probably won't have enough value to warrant starting in most fantasy formats.

Sacramento Kings guard/forward Kevin Huerter (leg) is considered questionable for Saturday's matchup against the Knicks. He's in danger of missing a second consecutive game with a right leg contusion. However, Huerter was a full participant in Friday's practice session, which is a good sign regarding his availability. Huerter's return will likely send Keon Ellis back to the second unit, where he will have minimal fantasy appeal. Huerter hasn't been a very good fantasy asset either as of late, posting only 6.5 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 2.8 assists in March.

Sacramento Kings guard Kevin Huerter (leg) has been downgraded from questionable to out on Wednesday night and will not face the Los Angeles Lakers. The good news for the Kings is that Keegan Murray (ankle) was upgraded to active, so they won't be without all of their shooters. This will be Huerter's first missed game since early January, but he hasn't been a very reliable fantasy asset this year. His minutes have fluctuated, so his scoring output has too. While he's sidelined, Keon Ellis will likely remain in the starting lineup while Malik Monk and Davion Mitchell will see extra opportunities off of the bench. Ellis and Mitchell could serve as solid streaming options in deeper fantasy leagues.

Sacramento Kings guard Kevin Huerter has been hot from the floor recently. On Thursday, Huerter shot 11-of-17 from the floor for a season-high 31 points with two rebounds, and four assists in the loss to the Indiana Pacers. Huerter has scored 26 and 31 points in two of his last three games. He has been hitting shots at a consistent clip right now, so fantasy managers should ride the wave. Huerter played 39 minutes on Thursday and is likely to continue playing significant minutes with him scoring like this.

Sacramento Kings guard Kevin Huerter (ankle) won't return to Wednesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. His night ended extremely early after Huerter suffered an ankle injury during the first minute of the first quarter. Chris Duarte took over for him and figures to see a bigger role through the rest of this game. The expectation is that Duarte and Malik Monk will split up the playing time, assuming Huerter misses additional time.
