Sacramento Kings

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 forward Keegan Murray (hip) is considered questionable for Tuesday's game against the Phoenix Suns. Murray was forced to exit early during Sunday's game due to a hip issue. His absence allowed Trey Lyles to move into the starting unit during the second half. Lyles figures to draw the start on Tuesday, assuming Murray is unable to play. Sasha Vezenkov would likely be his primary backup, but neither player has great streaming appeal.

Sacramento Kings forward Keegan Murray (hip) was forced to leave the team's Sunday night contest against the Milwaukee Bucks after playing just 19 minutes. He left the game with four points, one rebound, and one block while shooting 2-for-9 from the floor. The good news is this wasn't the same back issue he experienced earlier in the season. He was listed out with right hip irritation which seems like something that will need to be monitored to understand how much time he may miss. Trey Lyles saw the extra minutes in this game once Murray left and if he needs to miss any more time, he would be the first person to see added opportunities.

San Antonio Spurs forward Doug McDermott (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Saturday's game against the Chicago Bulls. The veteran forward will sit this game out due to a right ankle sprain. It's the second game of a back-to-back set, so possibly the Spurs are just being cautious and the ankle issue isn't that serious. The expectation is that Cedi Osman and Keldon Johnson will see more playing time with McDermott ruled out. Both players could be possible low-end streaming options for Saturday's slate.

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.
