With Precious Achiuwa (ankle) also listed as questionable, the Kings could lean heavily on Maxime Raynaud and Dylan Cardwell in the frontcourt.

Sabonis made his return Friday after missing nearly two months with a partially-torn meniscus, finishing with 13 points on 5-of-6 shooting in Sacramento's 128-115 victory over Washington. He came off the bench and logged 21 minutes while adding six rebounds, five assists, one steal and one block. The center converted three of five free-throw attempts in his first game back.
