Kings trade Marvin Bagley III to Pistons, Clippers send Serge Ibaka to Bucks as part of 4-team deal: Sources Bagley, the No. 2 pick in the 2018 NBA Draft, has played in 30 games this season, averaging 9.3 points and 7.2 rebounds in 21.9 minutes per...

Trey Lyles - Sent to Sacramento Lyles was traded to the Kings in a four-team deal Thursday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports. The Kings also acquired Donte DiVincenzo and Josh Jackson. The Bucks received Serge...

Impact Lyles is essentially a throw-in for the Kings to get a rotation player, while the Pistons take a chance on the higher upside of Bagley. That said, it seems unlikely Lyles will factor much into the Kings' gameplan given that he'll be competing for minutes with Domantas Sabonis, Richaun Holmes, Damian Jones, Maurice Harkless, Harrison Barnes and Chimezie Metu.

Josh Jackson - Headed to Sacramento Jackson (back) and Trey Lyles traded from the Pistons to the Kings on Thursday as part of a four-team trade, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports. Marvin Bagley was sent from the...

Impact Jackson made all but three of his appearances with the Pistons this year off the bench, and he averaged 7.1 points and 3.2 rebounds in 18.1 minutes per game across 39 total outings to begin the year. However, he's been sidelined for the last seven games due to a back injury. It's not yet clear whether the 25-year-old will be available for Saturday's game against the Wizards, but he should take on a bench role once he's healthy.

Donte DiVincenzo - Dealt to Kings DiVincenzo, along with Trey Lyles and Josh Jackson, was traded to the Kings in a four-team deal Thursday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports. The Bucks acquired Serge Ibaka, cash a...

Impact The Bucks infamously tried to trade DiVincenzo to the Kings before last season in a deal that would have brought Bogdan Bogdanovic to Milwaukee, but the league stepped in and deemed there was tampering involved, which resulted in the deal being shut down. More than a year later with two more teams involved, DiVincenzo has landed in Sacramento. DiVincenzo slots in as an option on the wing for the new-look Kings, though it's not clear if he'll usurp Justin Holiday in the starting five. Either way, DiVincenzo should at least reach the 20.1 minutes he was seeing in Milwaukee, which resulted in averages of 7.2 points, 3.5 rebounds and 1.7 assists. He showed much more upside last season when he averaged 10.4 points, 5.8 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 1.1 steals in 27.5 minutes.

Jeremy Lamb - Does well in Sacramento debut Lamb racked up 14 points (4-11 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six rebounds, five assists and two blocks in 31 minutes during Wednesday's 132-119 victory over the Timberwolves.

Impact Lamb made his first appearance for the Kings since being acquired in a trade with Indiana on Tuesday. He posted a nice all-around stat line for his new club, contributing 14 points, six boards, five dimes and even blocking two shots. This was the first time all season that Lamb has seen 30-plus minutes, so perhaps he'll be given a large enough role with Sacramento to be worth a look in fantasy. It's probably best to wait a few games to see if that situation pans out, however.

FEBRUARY 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Harrison Barnes - Leads Kings with 30 points in win Barnes supplied 30 points (8-11 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 10-10 FT), eight rebounds and three assists in 36 minutes during Wednesday's 132-119 victory over the Timberwolves.

Impact Barnes was the Kings' leading scorer on a night when Domantas Sabonis -- among others -- made his Sacramento debut. Barnes seemed to be energized by his new teammates, posting his highest point total since he racked up 36 points on opening night. The veteran forward has now scored 20-plus points in four straight games and is averaging 25.0 points, 7.0 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 2.0 three-pointers and 1.3 steals over that span.

FEBRUARY 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Domantas Sabonis - Impressive in Kings debut Sabonis chipped in 22 points (10-19 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 14 rebounds, five assists and one steal over 33 minutes during Wednesday's 132-119 victory over Minnesota.

Impact In his first game since being traded from Indiana to Sacramento on Tuesday, Sabonis led his new team in rebounds and finished with his 35th double-double of the campaign. That number is tied with Rudy Gobert for second-most in the NBA, behind only Nikola Jokic, who has produced 42 double-doubles. Sabonis appears to have had no trouble fitting in with the Kings and should get every opportunity to continue posting big numbers moving forward.

Domantas Sabonis to Make Kings' Debut Wednesday Against Timberwolves The Kings should have their newest potential building block in the lineup when they host Minnesota tonight.

FEBRUARY 10, 2022 • NESN.COM

Damian Jones - Returns to bench Jones will come off the bench Wednesday against the Timberwolves, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

Impact Jones delivered 18 points (9-11 FG), six rebounds, five assists and two blocks across 29 minutes in a spot start Tuesday but will shift back to the bench Wednesday. Domantas Sabonis will make his Kings debut, and Richaun Holmes (personal) is available after a one-game absence, so Jones figures to have a more limited role.

Chimezie Metu - Joins starting five Metu will start Wednesday's game against Minnesota, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

Impact Metu posted 14 points (5-7 FG, 4-4 FT), eight rebounds and four assists off the bench Tuesday and will make his first start since Jan. 16. Domantas Sabonis will start in his debut for Sacramento on Wednesday, while Richaun Holmes shifts to the bench.

FEBRUARY 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Davion Mitchell - Shifts to bench Mitchell will come off the bench Wednesday against the Timberwolves, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

Impact Mitchell averaged 17.4 points, 2.0 rebounds and 4.9 assists while starting the past seven games, but he'll move to the bench in favor of Justin Holiday, who is starting in his debut for the Kings. Mitchell should still operate as the top guard off the bench for Sacramento.

FEBRUARY 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Justin Holiday - Will start Wednesday Holiday is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's matchup with the Timberwolves, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

Impact Holiday will start in his Kings debut with Davion Mitchell now coming off the bench. Holiday averaged 28.9 minutes per game for the Pacers this season, and it appears he will have just as large of a role for the Kings in the coming months.

FEBRUARY 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Richaun Holmes - Moves to bench Holmes (personal) will come off the bench Wednesday against Minnesota, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

Impact Holmes missed Tuesday's matchup with the Timberwolves due to personal reasons, and he'll come off the bench in his return to action Wednesday. Domantas Sabonis will make his debut for Sacramento in the starting lineup alongside Chimezie Metu in the frontcourt.

FEBRUARY 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Justin Holiday - Active Wednesday Holiday (not injury related) is active for Wednesday's game against Minnesota.

Impact Holiday will be available to make his debut with his new squad after being acquired from the Pacers on Tuesday. The forward averaged 11.0 points, 2.8 rebounds and 1.8 assists in 49 games played with Indiana.

FEBRUARY 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Justin Holiday - Available Wednesday Holiday is available for Wednesday's matchup with the Timberwolves, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports.

Impact Holiday is now officially available for Wednesday's contest as the trade that sent him to Sacramento has been finalized. The 32-year-old forward will be making his Kings debut and should have a good-sized role but we will have a better idea of Holiday's spot in the rotation after this game.

FEBRUARY 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Jeremy Lamb - Active Wednesday Lamb (not injury related) is available to play Wednesday against Minnesota.

Impact Lamb will make his Kings' debut during Wednesday's matchup. In 39 games played with the Pacers this season, Lamb averaged 7.1 points and 2.4 rebounds while shooting 37.3 percent overall from the field.

FEBRUARY 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Domantas Sabonis - Cleared to debut for Kings Sabonis (pending trade) is available for Wednesday's game against the Timberwolves, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports.

Impact The trade with the Pacers has officially gone through, allowing Sabonis, Justin Holiday and Jeremy Lamb to suit up for Wednesday's matchup with Minnesota. Sabonis averaged 18.9 points, 12.1 rebounds, 5.0 assists and 1.0 steals in 34.7 minutes in 47 games for the Pacers this season, and he should operate as the co-No. 1 option for Sacramento alongside guard De'Aaron Fox.
