Availability
Russell Westbrook III (ankle) is unavailable for Wednesday's game against the Utah Jazz.
Fantasy Impact
Wednesday will be the first game that Westbrook has missed because of this ankle injury. His next chance to play will come on Thursday against the Magic, and fantasy managers should expect more work for Devin Carter until then, especially with Zach LaVine (finger) also set to be sidelined for the Kings in that matchup.
Russell Westbrook III posted a near triple-double for the Kings Saturday night, grabbing five rebounds, dishing out nine assists, and scoring 21 points (8-14 FG, 5-10 3PT, 0-2 FT) in a 132-126 loss to the Cavaliers.
Fantasy Impact
Westbrook III continues a modest stretch on the offensive end of the floor, finishing with four or more assists and six or more points in each of his last five games. The 37-year-old remains one of the few stable options as part of an underperforming Sacramento lineup, averaging 15.3 points, 5.8 rebounds, and 6.7 assists per game while posting a usage rate of 24.9% so far this season.
Russell Westbrook III is not listed on the injury report for Wednesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies.
Fantasy Impact
Westbrook participated fully in Tuesday’s practice after missing three straight games with a right foot contusion and will play on Wednesday. With his return, Nique Clifford and Devin Carter could see their minutes reduced.
Westbrook participated fully in Tuesday's practice session after missing three consecutive games with a right foot contusion. The Kings will release an official injury designation for Wednesday's matchup against the Grizzlies.
Fantasy Impact
The full practice participation marks a significant step forward in Westbrook's recovery from the foot issue. With Wednesday's game approaching, the official status update will determine whether he's cleared to return following the three-game absence.
Russell Westbrook III has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Washington Wizards.
Fantasy Impact
Westbrook will miss his third straight game due to a right foot contusion. With Dennis Schroder and Keon Ellis traded to the Cleveland Cavaliers, the Sacramento Kings will rely more heavily on Nique Clifford and Devin Carter, especially if Malik Monk (heel), who remains questionable, is also ruled out.
