The Sacramento Kings are coming off back-to-back wins over the Chicago Bulls and Indiana Pacers, but will have a harder time making it three straight games tonight against the Charlotte Hornets, as they’ve ruled out nearly an entire rotation of players.<\/p>\n
The Kings have dealt with injuries all season, but they are really piling up now at the end of the year. That’s not an uncommon thing for teams at the bottom of the standings, but the list <\/a>for tnoight’s game is truly remarkable.<\/p>\n Kings Injury Report<\/p>\n Dylan Cardwell – Out<\/p>\n Devin Carter – Out<\/p>\n De’Andre Hunter – Out<\/p>\n Zach LaVine – Out<\/p>\n Malik Monk – Out<\/p>\n Keegan Murray – Out<\/p>\n Domantas Sabonis – Out<\/p>\n Russell Westbrook – Out<\/p>\n That really would be a decent starting five and three players off the bench in the grand scheme of things. Five of the eight players (LaVine, Sabonis, Murray, Hunter, and Cardwell) have all been out for extended periods of time, but Carter, Monk, and Westbrook all played last night.<\/p>\n Carter appeared to injure himself at the end of the game, which is terrible timing for the sophomore guard. He’s coming off a career night where he scored a career-high 24 points, with 22 coming in the fourth quarter alone. He was a huge reason the Kings clawed back in the game last night against the Pacers. He’ll miss tonight’s contest due to right calf soreness.<\/p>\n Devin Carter walked off the floor with a very noticeable limp after leading the Sacramento Kings to a 114-109 win over the Indiana Pacers. Carter scored 22 of his career-high 24 points in the fourth quarter.<\/p>\n
