Robinson […]

Richaun Holmes Officially Out Against Wizards

Sacramento Kings center Richaun Holmes (eye) will not play Wednesday night against the Washington Wizards. Holmes was doubtful so no surprise here as he continues to deal with an eye injury. Alex Len will start again and is a low-end streamer for rebounds and blocks while Holmes remains out.

Terence Davis Enters Health And Safety Protocols

Sacramento Kings forward Terence Davis is out Wednesday against the Washington Wizards and has entered the league's health and safety protocols. Davis joins Marvin Bagley III as the other Kings player to enter the league's COVID-19 protocols on Wednesday, so hopefully this does not spread. With Davis out, Chimezie Metu and Davion Mitchell should see more […]

Sacramento Kings forward Marvin Bagley III has entered the league's health and safety protocols. That means, Bagley will miss Wednesday's game against the Washington Wizards.

DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (12/12/21): NBA DFS Lineups

DraftKings and FanDuel are giving us two short slates on the weekend as there are just five games on Sunday's main slate after a six-gamer on Saturday.

Marvin Bagley III Moves Into Starting Five

Sacramento Kings forward Marvin Bagley III will move into the starting five for Saturday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He'll join De'Aaron Fox, Tyrese Haliburton, Harrison Barnes and Alex Len, which means Terence Davis heads back to the bench.
