Kevin Huerter News
Sacramento Kings guard Kevin Huerter (shoulder) won't play on Thursday against Washington. However, the absence will extend beyond Thursday night, with ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reporting that Huerter suffered a dislocated left shoulder and labral tear during Monday's overtime win over the Memphis Grizzlies. The 25-year-old has struggled this season, averaging 10.2 points, five fewer than the 2022-23 campaign. At any rate, he doesn't have a timetable to return, so it's possible he's done for the year. But in the meantime, Keon Ellis, averaging 6.1 points and 2.6 steals in seven starts this season, will presumably continue to fill the hole in the rotation.
Sacramento Kings guard/forward Kevin Huerter (shoulder) has been ruled out for Wednesday's contest against the Raptors. He injured his left shoulder mere minutes into Monday's matchup against Memphis and has landed on the injury report with a dislocation of the shoulder, meaning Huerter could be out long-term. He will likely be replaced in the starting unit by Keon Ellis, with Chris Duarte also getting a chance to play a bigger part in the proceedings. Ellis' fantasy stock has already been on the rise due to his defensive capabilities, and a larger role should provide him with a further boost.
Sacramento Kings guard/forward Kevin Huerter exited Monday's contest against Memphis after only two minutes due to a shoulder injury. He hurt his left shoulder as Grizzlies guard Desmond Bane fouled him when Huerter tried to finish off a fastbreak with a dunk. Huerter has struggled to perform in recent weeks, and the injury is a fresh blow for him. Keon Ellis was Huerter's replacement in the starting unit last week when he missed a game against the Lakers, and the same change could happen Wednesday versus Toronto if it's a serious injury for Huerter. Ellis is mostly known for his defensive work, and he had a whopping five blocks on Monday, but the 24-year-old also did some damage offensively against the Lakers last week with three triples and 14 points.
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.
