Scores 22 points in return Sabonis racked up 22 points (6-15 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 10-10 FT), seven rebounds, four assists and one steal in 38 minutes during Monday's 112-103 win over the Bulls.

Impact Sabonis returned after a one-day suspension and another day to witness the birth of his first child. Although Nikola Vucevic posted an excellent stat line and won the rebound battle inside, Sabonis still got his share of production. Since joining the Kings, Sabonis has averaged 17.8 points, 12.3 rebounds and 5.8 assists.

Not on injury report Sabonis is not listed on the injury report ahead of Monday's game against the Bulls.

Suspended one game The NBA suspended Sabonis for one game for aggressively confronting and making contact with a game official in Monday's loss to the Knicks.

Impact Sabonis was ejected from Monday's game late in the fourth quarter, and he'll end up sitting out Wednesday's matchup with the Nuggets as a result of the one-game ban. Richaun Holmes (personal) will be away from the team, so Damian Jones, Trey Lyles and Alex Len could all see increased run out of the frontcourt. Sabonis should be back in action Saturday against the Jazz.

Impact Sabonis' exit won't be much of a detriment to his team, as the Kings were already down big late in the fourth quarter. He's now registered eight consecutive double-doubles and continues to also add value for fantasy managers in the assist column, averaging 6.4 dimes over the eight-game stretch.

Double-double in loss to Mavs Sabonis scored 15 points (7-10 FG, 1-5 FT) while adding 10 rebounds and six assists in 32 minutes during Saturday's 114-113 loss to the Mavericks.

Impact The 26-year-old reeled off his seventh straight double-double and ninth in 10 games since joining the Kings at the trade deadline, and Sabonis only missed making it 10-for-10 by a single point and single board in the other contest. He's averaging 17.2 points, 12.8 rebounds and 6.0 assists to begin his tenure in Sacramento.

Puts up another diverse stat line Sabonis racked up 14 points (7-8 FG), 16 rebounds, seven assists and one steal over 31 minutes during Monday's 131-110 win over the Thunder.

Impact Sabonis' 14/16/7 line was a carbon copy of the production he posted in his previous contest, which took place Saturday against Denver. The big man's status as one of the league's top passing centers hasn't suffered as a result of his trade to the Kings. In fact, Sabonis' 5.9 dimes per contest as a member of Sacramento is slightly higher than the 5.0 mark he posted across 47 games with Indiana earlier this season.

Continues strong all-around play Sabonis ended with 14 points (6-14 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-5 FT), 16 rebounds, seven assists, one block and one steal over 33 minutes during Saturday's 115-110 loss to the Nuggets.

Impact Sabonis wasn't as dominant offensively as he was in his 33-point effort against Denver on Thursday, but he still made a big impact on the game. The star center led all players with 16 boards while dishing seven assists in a near triple-double. Sabonis has produced five double-doubles in six games since joining the Kings on Feb. 8.

Notches best game as King Sabonis racked up 33 points (15-23 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), 14 rebounds, five assists, one block and one steal in 37 minutes during Thursday's 128-110 loss to Denver.

Impact Sabonis had been solid but unspectacular in his first four games with Sacramento, averaging 17.3 points, 11.5 rebounds and 5.5 assists per contest. He broke through with a big scoring effort Thursday, eclipsing the 30-point mark for the first time since scoring 42 against the Jazz as a member of the Pacers on Jan. 8. The big man also led all players in the contest with 14 boards and paced the Kings with five dimes. Needless to say, fantasy managers who roster Sabonis will be more than pleased if he maintains anywhere near this type of production over the second half of the campaign.

Nears triple-double in loss Sabonis accumulated 22 points (10-15 FG, 2-2 FT), 12 rebounds, eight assists and two steals over 37 minutes during Wednesday's loss to the Bulls.

Impact After a disappointing nine-point game Monday, Sabonis had an incredible comeback performance, ending just two assists shy of a triple-double. The 25-year-old is now averaging 17.3 points, 11.5 rebounds and 5.5 assists through his first four games with the Kings. As All-Star Weekend has arrived, Sabonis now has a full week to further settle in with his new team.
