MATTHEW DELLAVEDOVA
Makes rare appearance Tuesday Dellavedova totaled no counting stats in one minute during Tuesday's 120-109 loss to Phoenix.
Impact Dellavedova featured in the rotation for the first time in more than a week, although you could be forgiven for missing it given he managed just one minute. On most nights, there is simply no role for Dellavedova other than providing veteran leadership off the bench. Managers can ignore him in all formats.

Active Friday Dellavedova (illness) will play in Friday's game against the Thunder, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.
Impact Dellavedova missed Wednesday's game with a non-COVID illness but will be available for Friday's tilt. Even so, Dellavedova has been in and out of the rotation lately and should not be in fantasy consideration.
JANUARY 20, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Questionable Friday Dellavedova (illness) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against Oklahoma City.
Impact Dellavedova was held out of Wednesday's contest due to a non-COVID illness and is at risk of missing a second consecutive tilt. Although his status will largely depend on how the 32-year-old feels going through warmups, his availability should not impact the Kings' rotation.
JANUARY 20, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Downgraded to out Dellavedova (illness) will not play in Wednesday's game against the Lakers, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.
Impact Dellavedova will sit out Wednesday's tilt after being a late addition to the injury report. Considering he has not logged more than five minutes since Dec. 16, his absence should not impact Sacramento's rotation. Dellavedova's next chance to play will come Friday against Oklahoma City.

Late addition to injury report Dellavedova is questionable for Wednesday's game versus the Lakers due to a non-COVID illness.
Impact Dellavedova's late addition to the injury report is a bad sign for his availability Wednesday. However, his potential absence shouldn't affect the Kings' rotation much.
JANUARY 18, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Additional playing time Friday Dellavedova chipped in three points (1-1 FG, 1-1 3Pt), one rebound, four assists and three steals in 16 minutes during Friday's 106-95 win over Cleveland.
Impact Dellavedova logged 16 minutes in the win, a sizeable role compared to his usual allotment of playing time. The Kings were down several backcourt pieces here, meaning Dellavedova was called upon to do a little more. While the three steals were undoubtedly nice, he is clearly nothing more than a placeholder, meaning there is no reason to go and add him.
DECEMBER 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Makes an appearance in loss Dellavedova finished Thursday's 125-110 loss to the Grizzlies with no counting stats in one minute.
Impact Dellavedova made a rare appearance in the loss, logging a whopping 35 seconds. The fact he made the final roster came as a bit of a surprise to many and based on what we have seen across the first few games, there is basically zero chance he has any fantasy value this season, no matter the league depth.

Kings hope new coach ends record 16-year playoff drought
After a record 16-year run of futility, the Sacramento Kings are counting on Mike Brown to be the coach that will end the longest playoff drought in NBA historyOCTOBER 11, 2022 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Signs with Sacramento The Kings signed Dellavedova on Friday.
Impact Dellavedova played for Melbourne United in Australia last season, where he averaged 10.3 points, 4.8 assists and 3.1 rebounds in 25.6 minutes, but he shot just 38.9 percent from the field. The 31-year-old last played in the NBA with the Cavaliers in 2020-21, appearing in just 13 games due to injuries. In Sacramento, he'll look to solidify a bench role behind De'Aaron Fox and Davion Mitchell.
