Sasha Vezenkov - Facing multi-week absence Vezenkov is expected to be sidelined for multiple weeks while tending to a recurring right ankle sprain, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.
Impact Vezenkov initially sprained the ankle in the Kings' Jan. 22 win over Atlanta, resulting in him missing seven games before he returned to action 16 days later. In his second appearance following the injury, Vezenkov suffered an apparent aggravation of the injury in Friday's 135-106 win over Denver. The Kings will likely have an update on Vezenkov's status coming out of the All-Star break, but his absence will create a minor hole in the rotation. Alex Len and Kessler Edwards look to be the primary candidates to step into the rotation in Vezenkov's absence, while Trey Lyles could also see an expanded role as the top backup at both frontcourt spots.

Injury Report, Updated Odds (2/11): Oklahoma City Thunder vs. Sacramento Kings The Thunder looks to avoid its third straight loss as they host the Kings, who they’ve struggled against in recent history.

Sasha Vezenkov - Won't play Sunday Vezenkov is inactive for Sunday's game against Oklahoma City due to a right ankle sprain.
Impact Vezenkov compiled 22 minutes across Sacramento's last two games, following seven-game absence due to a right ankle sprain for the 28-year-old. It's unclear if he's dealing with a significant aggravation, but his next opportunity to take the court comes Tuesday versus Phoenix.

De'Aaron Fox - Logs double-double with 10 assists Fox closed with 15 points (7-15 FG, 1-2 3Pt), two rebounds, 10 assists and five steals across 28 minutes during Friday's 135-106 victory over the Nuggets.
Impact It's hard to believe that Friday marked Fox's third double-double of the season, as one would expect the dynamic guard to hit the milestone with more frequency. Domantas Sabonis is the primary culprit, as he leads the team with 8.2 assists per game and caps Fox's distribution totals. Fox still leads the team with 26.6 points per game this season, and will continue to be a mist-start in all formats.

Malik Monk - Leads team with 23 points Monk finished with 23 points (9-13 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound, two assists, one block and one steal over 20 minutes during Friday's 135-106 win over the Nuggets.
Impact Monk's total was impressive when you consider his 20 minutes of court time, which was over five minutes less than his seasonal average. If backcourt size was a non-issue, Monk would have likely overtaken Kevin Huerter in the starting lineup weeks ago, but Huerter's 6-7 frame gives the team a better defensive set despite his recent shooting struggles. Monk's sixth-man role has been critical to the team's success, and he'll try to extend his streak of double-digit scoring totals Sunday against the Thunder.

Domantas Sabonis - Racks up 16th triple-double Sabonis finished Friday's 135-106 win over the Nuggets with 17 points (7-9 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 17 rebounds, 10 assists and one steal over 31 minutes.
Impact Sabonis' triple-double broke the tie with Nikola Jokic for top spot in the category. The Nuggets were no match for the Kings on their hime court, as Sobonis joined six other players with double-digit scoring totals. The big man missed only two shots in the game, raising his season field goal percentage to 62.2 percent.
