Devin Carter Iffy To Face Portland
Devin Carter (illness) is questionable for Thursday night's action against the Portland Trail Blazers. He has been battling an illness for some time. It kept Carter out of the lineup on Monday against the Boston Celtics, but he returned to action on Tuesday night against the Oklahoma City Thunder. However, Carter only logged three minutes in the game. Markelle Fultz has played more in recent games, but this has not increased his fantasy value. If Carter gets cleared to play, he could assume a significant role on Thursday, as Malik Monk (illness) may sit out the contest.

Devin Carter To Suit Up Against Trail Blazers
Devin Carter (illness) will be active on Thursday against the Portland Trail Blazers. He was initially regarded as questionable for the game due to an illness. Carter's presence could be important for Sacramento if Malik Monk (illness) has to miss a fourth straight contest. However, it is unlikely he will make a major impact in fantasy basketball, as Carter's contributions this season have been limited to 4.1 points and 1.2 assists per game.

Devin Carter Ready To Go On Tuesday
Devin Carter (illness) has been cleared to play ahead of Tuesday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The rookie guard is ready to go after missing their last game due to an illness. Fellow guard Malik Monk (illness) remains out for the third game in a row. That being said, Carter and Keon Ellis should see increased roles in the rotation on Tuesday. The 23-year-old hasn't done much even with extended playing time this season. He does have two steals or more in three of his last four games, so maybe he could help someone in deep category leagues.

Devin Carter Tagged As Questionable On Monday
Devin Carter (illness) appeared on the injury report as questionable for the Monday night matchup with the Boston Celtics while he deals with some sort of illness. The rookie guard has seen quite the fluctuation in minutes lately and has struggled to find his shooting efficiency, so his fantasy value is very limited, especially if Malik Monk (questionable - illness) suits up. Over the last nine games, Carter has averaged 5.2 points, 2.4 rebounds, 1.4 assists, and 1.1 steals per game. If Carter doesn't play, some more minutes will be available for Markelle Fultz, unless Keon Ellis gets shifted back to the bench.

Devin Carter Questionable Thursday Against Houston
Devin Carter (shoulder) is listed as questionable for the Kings' Thursday night home game against the Rockets. The rookie has been limited to just six games this season after he underwent left shoulder surgery in July. He has played 14.2 minutes per game in his six games while contributing 5.7 points, 4.2 rebounds, and 1.8 assists in the Kings' second unit. Carter was able to go through shootaround which could indicate he'll be able to play through the soreness, but if he's out, the Kings would be very short-handed since Jordan McLaughlin (personal) is also listed as out. Keon Ellis and De'Aaron Fox would have to handle more of the work since the Kings wouldn't have many other guard options on the bench if Carter is unable to give it a go.
