Kings dealt major blow as Sabonis suffers partial meniscus tear

Sacramento center Domantas Sabonis has been ruled out with a partial meniscus tear in his left knee and will be re-evaluated in three to four weeks, a serious setback for a Kings team already sitting near the bottom of the Western Conference at 3-12. The 29-year-old former All-Star has averaged 17.2 points, 12.3 rebounds and 3.7 assists across 11 games this season, anchoring Sacramento’s offense and rebounding, and his absence will force deeper rotation minutes on a struggling roster that lacks alternative interior playmaking and reliable size.

Sabonis to miss start with Grade-1 hamstring strain

Sabonis sustained a Grade-1 left hamstring strain and will be re-evaluated in a week, sidelining him for the opener at Phoenix and the home debut versus Utah. Keegan Murray remains out following thumb surgery. Injury occurred in preseason versus the Clippers. Sacramento will stagger usage through backup bigs and handoff sets redistributed across guards/wings, protecting re-injury risk with progressive running, eccentrics, and change-of-direction testing before clearance.
