Trey Lyles News, Rumors, Updates - Sacramento Kings

Records double-double in loss Lyles finished Monday's 109-108 loss to the Hawks with 12 points (4-11 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 10 rebounds, four assists and one steal across 38 minutes.

Impact Lyles has started in the Kings' last two games with Domantas Sabonis (back) sidelined, and he's responded with back-to-back double-digit scoring efforts. He's been a good filler in the Kings' starting lineup, but his fantasy upside will last only while he's playing as a starter. It's uncertain if that will happen again when the Kings take on the Clippers on Friday.

Fills in for Sabonis with 17 points Lyles contributed 17 points (6-9 FG, 5-7 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and one block in 35 minutes during Saturday's 121-117 win over the Jazz.

Impact Filling in for Domantas Sabonis (back) is a tall order, but Lyles was solid in relief. He lurked at the perimeter often in the victory, drilling five three-pointers in a rare display of sharpshooting. Sabonis should return soon, but Lyles' performance gives the Kings confidence that they're well-covered at the position.

Fox scores 49 points one day after franchise-record performance to lead Kings over Jazz 121-117

After scoring 60 points in a losing effort the night before, De’Aaron Fox had 49 points to lead the Sacramento Kings to a 121-117 win over the Utah Jazz

4 DAYS AGO • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Starting Saturday Lyles is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Jazz.

Impact The Kings will shake things up in the frontcourt with the absence of Domantas Sabonis (back), and Lyles will get the nod at center instead of Alex Len, who got the nod in the loss to the Timberwolves on Friday. This will be Lyles' first start of the 2024-25 campaign. He's averaging 4.9 points, 3.7 rebounds and 0.6 blocks per game this season.

Scores season-high 13 points Lyles racked up 13 points (5-7 FG, 3-5 3Pt), five rebounds and three assists in 22 minutes during Wednesday's 127-104 victory over Phoenix.

Impact Lyles's efficient shooting from beyond the arc helped him record a season-high 13 points off the bench in Wednesday's blowout win over Phoenix. However, the 29-year-old forward is shooting just 33.3 percent from the field and 28.6 percent from three in 2024-25.

6 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Hits two three-pointers Lyles produced eight points (3-8 FG, 2-6 3Pt), four rebounds, two blocks and one steal across 27 minutes during Monday's 116-96 loss to San Antonio.

Impact It's no secret that Lyles has had a quiet start to the campaign. Through 11 appearances, he's hitting just 28.0 percent from the field and 24.3 percent from beyond the arc. His counting stats have been low too, as he's averaging 4.0 points, 3.2 rebounds and 0.8 three-pointers in 15.9 minutes.

NOVEMBER 12 • ROTOWIRE

Modest role continues Lyles accumulated five points (2-4 FG, 1-3 3Pt) and one rebound over 16 minutes during Monday's 111-110 win over the Heat.

Impact Lyles has played between 11 and 20 minutes in each of the Kings' seven games thus far, averaging 4.0 points, 3.1 rebounds and 1.4 steals-plus-blocks in 16.1 minutes per contest. The veteran is a solid role player but can't be trusted for consistent production.

NOVEMBER 5 • ROTOWIRE

Limited minutes off bench in opener Lyles (groin) played 11 minutes and finished with three points (1-4 FG, 1-3 3Pt), one rebound, one assist and one steal in Thursday's 117-115 loss to the Timberwolves.

Impact Though he missed all of the preseason while managing a groin strain, Lyles was cleared for the regular-season opener and was the Kings' first frontcourt player off the bench, as he checked into the game for Keegan Murray with 3:29 remaining in the first quarter. Neither Lyles nor fellow reserve big man Alex Len (six minutes) saw much run, however, as the Kings leaned heavily on Murray (43 minutes) and Domantas Sabonis (38 minutes). Lyles would likely need an injury to hit one of the Kings' two frontcourt starters before he sees enough meaningful playing time to warrant attention in most fantasy leagues.

OCTOBER 25 • ROTOWIRE

Cleared for Thursday Lyles (groin) will play Thursday versus Minnesota, Sean Cunningham of Fox 40 Sacramento reports.

Impact Lyles suffered a left groin strain at the end of September, and while the injury limited him throughout training camp, the 28-year-old is ready for regular-season action. He profiles as Sacramento's only true forward behind Keegan Murray.

OCTOBER 23 • ROTOWIRE

Participates in walkthrough Lyles (groin) walked through the offense with coaches following Wednesday's practice session, Matt George of ABC 10 Sacramento reports.

Impact Lyles is battling through a groin injury he suffered during offseason workouts, which has kept him out of training camp. The hope for Lyles is he will be available for the start of the 2024-25 regular season, though his minutes could be restricted as he catches up on his conditioning. He's slated to provide frontcourt depth behind Domantas Sabonis, Keegan Murray and Alex Len.

OCTOBER 7 • ROTOWIRE

Suffers groin strain Lyles suffered a left groin strain during offseason workouts and is expected to be sidelined three weeks, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports.

Impact When healthy, Lyles projects to provide frontcourt depth this season in Sacramento behind Domantas Sabonis and Alex Len. Thus, he looks to be a fringe-rotational player. His timeline for recovery should lead to a return just prior to the start of the regular-season tipping off, barring any setbacks. However, he may be behind on his conditioning at that point.

SEPTEMBER 27 • ROTOWIRE

Overcoming illness Lyles (illness) is available for Sunday's regular-season finale versus Portland, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports.

Impact Lyles will suit up for his ninth consecutive contest Sunday, joining a fully healthy Kings frontcourt. Sacramento is destined for the Play-In Tournament, but the exact seating remains on the line.

APRIL 14 • ROTOWIRE

Battling illness Lyles is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Trail Blazers with an illness.

Impact Lyles didn't appear on the Kings' initial injury report for the regular-season finale that was released Saturday, so the illness may have been something that cropped up overnight. The Kings will likely see how he recovers over the next few hours before making a decision on his status shortly before the 3:30 p.m. ET tipoff. Since making his return to action March 31 following a nine-game absence due to a left knee sprain, Lyles has appeared in each of Sacramento's last eight contests while averaging 8.1 points, 4.1 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.8 three-pointers, 0.6 blocks and 0.5 steals in 21.5 minutes.

APRIL 14 • ROTOWIRE

Double-double in Brooklyn Lyles had 14 points (6-8 FG, 2-3 3Pt), 10 rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal across 29 minutes off the bench during Sunday's 107-77 victory over the Nets.

Impact It's the first double-double of the season for Lyles in his 54th game. The veteran forward has scored in double digits in four of five contests since returning from a knee injury, and he's averaged 10.6 points, 4.6 boards, 2.2 assists, 2.0 threes and 0.8 blocks in 24.0 minutes a game over that stretch.

Posts 11 points in return Lyles (knee) logged 11 points (3-8 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one block across 19 minutes off the bench in Sunday's 127-106 win over the Jazz.

Impact Making his return from a nine-game absence due to a left knee sprain, Lyles led the Kings' second unit in scoring thanks largely to his hot shooting display from downtown. Though Lyles has split time between both frontcourt spots this season, his minutes largely came as a backup power forward Sunday while Alex Len logged 12 minutes behind starting center Alex Len. Since Len doesn't present much of a perimeter scoring threat, Lyles could have the opportunity to see reserve minutes at both power forward and center if head coach Mike Brown elects to tighten his rotation in future games. With that in mind, Lyles might be someone to keep an eye on over the final two weeks of the regular season in case his role expands. For the time being, though, his fantasy utility will mostly be contained to deeper leagues.

APRIL 1 • ROTOWIRE

Available Sunday Lyles (knee) will play in Sunday's game against the Jazz, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports.

Impact Lyles has missed the last nine games due to a left knee sprain, but he will return to the lineup Sunday. It would be surprising if Lyles sees a significant role anytime soon.

MARCH 31 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable to face Utah Lyles (knee) is questionable to face the Jazz on Sunday.

Impact Lyles could return after missing the previous nine games due to a lingering knee sprain. The power forward hasn't stepped on the court since March 12. He's averaging just 5.3 points and 3.9 rebounds across 18.6 minutes per game since the All-Star break, so his return shouldn't impact many fantasy decisions either way.

MARCH 31 • ROTOWIRE

Reevaluated in two weeks Lyeles (knee) is expected to be reevaluated in two weeks due to an MCL sprain, Frankie Cartoscelli of KHTK Sactown Sports 1140 reports.

Impact The injury occurred in the second quarter of Tuesday's loss to the Bucks. Given his two week timeline, Lyles will presumably miss at least eight games. In his absence, Kessler Edwards and Alex Len could potentially see some more reserve minutes in the frontcourt.

MARCH 15 • ROTOWIRE

Doesn't practice Thursday Lyles (knee) didn't participate in Thursday's practice but did put up flat-footed shots afterwards, Sean Cunningham of Fox 40 Sacramento reports.

Impact Lyles missed Sacramento's previous contest due to a left knee sprain. Lyle's inability to practice is a bad sign of his availability for Saturday's matchup with the Knicks.

MARCH 15 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play Wednesday Lyles (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Lakers.

Impact Lyles left Tuesday's win over the Bucks early after bumping knees with Brook Lopez on a rebound, and the former will miss at least one additional game after being diagnosed with a left knee sprain. The veteran's next chance to suit up will come Saturday versus the Knicks.

MARCH 13 • ROTOWIRE

Out for remainder of game Lyles won't return to Tuesday's game versus the Bucks due to a left knee injury. He will finish the contest with zero points (0-2 FG, 0-2 3Pt) and four rebounds in eight minutes

Impact With Keegan Murray (knee) already out, Alex Len and Kessler Edwards are candidates to receive increased minutes in Lyle's absence. Lyle's next chance to suit up is Wednesday's matchup with the Lakers.

MARCH 13 • ROTOWIRE

Gets boards in win Lyles chipped in seven points (3-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds and one assist across 30 minutes during Wednesday's 130-120 win over the Lakers.

Impact Lyles is averaging 5.6 points and 4.0 rebounds while shooting 22.2 percent from three in 20.0 minutes since the All-Star break. This is a far cry to his first 39 games played this season where the forward averaged 7.6 points and 4.5 rebounds on 40.5 percent from deep in 20.0 minutes. Due to the lack of depth at the forward position, expect Lyles to continue receiving opportunities off the bench.

MARCH 7 • ROTOWIRE

Set to play against Denver Lyles (illness) is available for Wednesday's game versus the Nuggets, Chris Biderman of The Sacramento Bee reports.

Impact Lyles has been upgraded from questionable to available Wednesday after missing Sacramento's previous contest with a non-COVID illness. Lyles is averaging 9.5 points, 3.5 rebounds and 1.1 assists in 20.1 minutes across his last 10 appearances.
