Harrison Barnes - Puts in 24 points in loss Barnes accumulated 24 points (7-16 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 9-9 FT), five rebounds and three assists over 38 minutes during Saturday's 115-110 loss to the Nuggets.

Impact Barnes trailed only De'Aaron Fox (26 points) for team-high scoring honors, finishing with his sixth game of 20-plus points across 10 contests in February. The veteran forward was particularly efficient from the charity stripe, where he knocked down all nine of his attempts. Barnes is enjoying perhaps his best season as a King, posting per-game averages of 17.1 points, 6.1 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.9 three-pointers.

Domantas Sabonis - 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.

De'Aaron Fox - Stars as scorer, distributor Fox provided 26 points (10-19 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 5-5 FT), 10 assists, five rebounds and one block across 40 minutes during Saturday's 115-110 loss to Denver.

Impact Fox led Sacramento in both scoring and assists in the contest to register his second double-double of the campaign. He had previously achieved the feat Oct. 27 against Phoenix in the Kings' fourth game of the season. Fantasy managers who roster Fox will be happy to see the big assist total, as the fifth-year point guard is averaging just 5.2 dimes per game on the season -- his lowest mark since his rookie campaign.

Jeremy Lamb - Solid line in return Lamb (ankle) finished with 11 points (4-8 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, two assists and two blocks across 20 minutes Thursday in the Kings' 128-110 loss to the Nuggets.

Impact Lamb missed the Kings' final three games before the All-Star break with a sore left ankle, but he received the green light to play as Sacramento opened its second-half schedule. He immediately stepped into a rotation role and produced a decent stat line, but his playing time and output could be volatile on a game-by-game basis. He'll be one of several guard/wing players competing for minutes in any given game, with Donte DiVincenzo, Davion Mitchell and Justin Holiday also in the mix.

Davion Mitchell - Quiet performance in return Mitchell finished with seven points (3-10 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three assists and one steal across 30 minutes during Thursday's 128-110 loss to the Nuggets.

Impact Mitchell missed Sacramento's previous contest with a sore right hand, but the All-Star break provided enough time for him to recover. However, the rookie struggled with his shot against Denver, missing all four of his three-point attempts and going 3-for-10 from the field overall. Mitchell did see 30 minutes off the bench, which is a positive sign for his playing time moving forward. He averaged 26.0 minutes over 54 games prior to the break.

De'Aaron Fox - Hits 20-point mark in loss Fox provided 20 points (9-18 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), one rebound, four assists and two blocks across 36 minutes during Thursday's 128-110 loss to the Nuggets.

Impact Fox trailed only Domantas Sabonis (33 points) for team high-scoring honors, though this was his lowest point total in his past seven contests. The point guard also tied for second on the team with four assists. Fox had averaged 28.0 points, 5.5 dimes and 5.2 boards during his last six games before the All-Star break, so this was a moderately disappointing effort. He'll look to raise his production in a rematch with the Nuggets on Saturday.

Domantas Sabonis - 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.

Richaun Holmes - Late scratch Thursday Holmes has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Nuggets due to back soreness, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

Impact Holmes wasn't included on the Kings' initial injury report, but he'll be forced to miss Thursday's tilt with Denver as he deals with back soreness. As a result, Damian Jones and Trey Lyles could see increased run in Sacramento's frontcourt. Holmes' next chance to return will be Saturday in a rematch against the Nuggets.

Davion Mitchell - Not listed on injury report Mitchell (hand) is no longer listed on the injury report ahead of Thursday's game against the Nuggets.

Impact Mitchell went through a full practice Tuesday and Wednesday, so the writing was on the wall, but his removal from the report officially signals his return from the hand injury that kept him out of the Kings' final game before the break. While he may continue to come off the bench behind Justin Holiday and De'Aaron Fox, Mitchell figures to continue to play a key role for the Kings down the stretch. He'll face some competition for minutes from deadline arrival Donte DiVincenzo, however.

Impact Lamb missed the team's last three games leading up to the All-Start break but after practicing on Wednesday, it sounds like he will return for Thursday's matchup with the Nuggets. In his lone appearance with the Kings this season, Lamb recorded 14 points, six rebounds, five assists and two blocks in 31 minutes of action.
