Jeremy Lamb - Out FridayLamb (personal) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Celtics.
De'Aaron Fox - Questionable for FridayFox is questionable for Friday's game against the Celtics due to a right hand injury.
ImpactIt appears Fox picked up a hand injury some time during Wednesday's loss to the Bucks, so it's unclear if he'll be available when the Kings host the Celtics on Friday. Fox hasn't missed a game since Feb. 5, but if he ultimately can't go, Davion Mitchell would likely draw the start at point guard.

Tatum, Boston set for matchup with Sacramento
Jayson Tatum leads Boston into a matchup against Sacramento averaging 26.7 points per gameMARCH 17, 2022•ASSOCIATED PRESS
Domantas Sabonis - Leads squad with 22 pointsSabonis finished with 22 points (6-13 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 10-13 FT), five rebounds, seven assists, one block and one steal over 39 minutes during Wednesday's 135-126 loss to the Bucks.
ImpactSabonis did much of his damage from the free-throw line, knocking down 10 shots in 13 attempts. He also tied for the team lead with seven assists, though he was uncharacteristically quiet on the boards, finishing with his lowest rebound total since Dec. 21. Defensive stats aside, Sabonis can typically be counted on for contributions across the board, as he is averaging 18.1 points, 11.8 rebounds and 5.8 dimes in 13 games with Sacramento.

Davion Mitchell - Posts 19 points WednesdayMitchell amassed 19 points (8-13 FG, 3-7 3Pt), three rebounds, four assists and one steal over 30 minutes during Wednesday's 135-126 loss to the Bucks.
ImpactMitchell finished with his highest point total since Feb. 3, shooting an efficient 8-for-13 from the field and draining a trio of three-pointers. The rookie guard has picked up his scoring of late, notching double-digit points in four of five contests after failing to do so in five of his previous six games. Mitchell is averaging 10.2 points, 3.3 assists, 2.2 boards and 1.3 three-pointers on the season.

De'Aaron Fox - Cools down against BucksFox posted 21 points (8-23 FG, 3-11 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, seven assists and two steals over 37 minutes during Wednesday's 135-126 loss to the Bucks.
ImpactFox entered the contest having averaged 35.0 points on 52.7 percent shooting over his past five games, but he struggled to find the bottom of the net Wednesday. The star point guard finished with his lowest point total since Feb. 24 and converted just eight of 23 field-goal attempts. He did chip in a healthy number of assists, boards and steals, however, so he was far from useless for fantasy managers who roster him. Fox will face another tough matchup when the Kings host the Celtics on Friday.

Wesley Matthews - Solid effort across 20 minutesMatthews contributed eight points (2-4 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-3 FT), six rebounds, two assists and three steals in 20 minutes during Wednesday's 135-126 win over Sacramento.
ImpactMatthews made the most of his time on the court Wednesday, scoring eight points on only four shot attempts and grabbing his most rebounds since early January. The veteran knocked down a clutch three-pointer with less than two minutes remaining that broke a 126-126 tie and sent Milwaukee off to victory. Matthews has regularly played 20-plus minutes since mid-February, but his production has been too tepid to warrant fantasy consideration.
