After missing Sacramento's final three outings before the All-Star break due to right finger soreness, La Vine is scheduled to undergo season-ending surgery. The veteran swingman will finish the season with averages of 19.2 points, 2.8 rebounds and 2.3 assists across 31.4 minutes per contest in 39 regular-season games (37 starts). He holds a $48.97 million player option for the 2026-27 campaign. With La Vine sidelined, Nique Clifford should continue to see an expanded role, while Malik Monk (illness) and Devin Carter are also candidates for increased playing time.
With the 12-44 Kings' season circling the drain, Sabonis elected to go under the knife after attempting play through the injury this season. The star big man averaged 15.8 points, 11.4 rebounds and 4.1 assists in 29.7 minutes per tilt across a career-low 19 games this year before going down. With Dylan Cardwell (ankle) now sidelined for the foreseeable future, rookie second-rounder Maxime Raynaud has a big opportunity to seize the lion's share of the center minutes going forward.
Hunter only managed to suit up for two games for Sacramento before opting to undergo a season-ending procedure on his eye, but this shouldn't be something that impacts his status for next year's training camp. Hunter will end his 2025-26 campaign with averages of 13.7 points, 4.1 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.7 triples per game.
Monk is away from the team for personal reasons Friday. His next chance to rejoin the Kings arrives Sunday, when Sacramento takes on the Clippers. Devin Carter and Nique Clifford should see enough playing time to warrant streaming attention in all fantasy leagues Friday.
Murray will miss an 18th consecutive contest due to a left ankle sprain, though he was recently cleared to take contact in practice. He should be considered doubtful for Sunday's game against the Clippers.
Out
R. Westbrook
Westbrook is on track for his seventh consecutive absence due to a right toe injury. Devin Carter has taken over starting point guard duties in Westbrook's place, and he'll have a good chance to make another start Friday night.
Out For Season
D. Eubanks
Eubanks will end his 2025-26 campaign with averages of 5.2 points and 3.0 rebounds per game. The 28-year-old big man should be healthy by training camp next season, but he'll be looking for a new contract as a free agent this summer.
Out
I. Stevens
The two-way player hasn't made an appearance for Sacramento since the All-Star break, so he presumably sustained the injury during his most recent game in the G League with the Stockton Kings on Saturday. Over his three appearances at the NBA level on the season, Stevens is averaging 3.3 points, 3.3 assists, 1.7 steals and 1.0 rebounds in 14.3 minutes.
