The Kings’ rotation continues to thin out as more key players get injured. The team is without Domantas Sabonis and Zach LaVine for the remainder of the season and now lose Monk for at least tonight. It’s unclear whether this injury will keep Monk sidelined for an extended period.

Monk played 11 minutes tonight, posting four points on 2-of-4 shooting.
