Valanciunas finished Saturday's 113-103 win over the Rockets with 15 points (7-10 FG, 1-1 FT), 14 rebounds, one assist, three blocks and four steals in 30 minutes. Valanciunas had to play a bigger role than expected since Domantas Sabonis (hamstring) left the contest in the early stages of the first quarter, but he thrived in an expanded role and posted an impressive line. This was his first double-double since joining the Kings, and while he's averaging 8.4 points and 6.1 boards per contest since the trade, Valanciunas could be in line for a more significant role at center if Sabonis is forced to miss time.

Makes most of Sabonis' absence

Valanciunas finished Saturday's 113-103 win over the Rockets with 15 points (7-10 FG, 1-1 FT), 14 rebounds, one assist, three blocks and four steals in 30 minutes. Valanciunas had to play a bigger role than expected since Domantas Sabonis (hamstring) left the contest in the early stages of the first quarter, but he thrived in an expanded role and posted an impressive line. This was his first double-double since joining the Kings, and while he's averaging 8.4 points and 6.1 boards per contest since the trade, Valanciunas could be in line for a more significant role at center if Sabonis is forced to miss time.
Only 15 minutes in win

Valanciunas closed with five points (2-3 FG, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, two blocks and one steal over 15 minutes during Wednesday's 119-111 win over the Pelicans. Valanciunas, while providing the Kings with a reliable backup center, continues to play limited minutes off the bench. Domantas Sabonis is one of the more durable players in the league, meaning Valanciunas is likely going to find it hard to play more than 15 minutes per game moving forward.
Small role in Sactown debut

Valanciunas ended Thursday's 108-102 loss to the Trail Blazers with six points (2-8 FG, 2-2 FT), five rebounds and three assists across 17 minutes off the bench. The veteran center was acquired from the Wizards on Wednesday and wasted little time making his Kings debut. Valanciunas provided solid per-minute production from the second unit, but with Domantas Sabonis locked into the starting job, Valanciunas may have trouble seeing even the 20.5 minutes a game he'd been averaging for Washington since Christmas.
Available to play

Valanciunas (recently traded) is available for Thursday's game against Portland, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports. The Kings acquired Valanciunas from the Wizards on Wednesday, and the trade has been finalized with the NBA. He'll likely operate as the backup center behind Domantas Sabonis, so it will be hard for him to produce reliable fantasy value outside of deeper formats.
Traded to Sacramento

The Wizards traded Valanciunas on Wednesday to the Kings in exchange for Sidy Cissoko and two second-round picks, NBA reporter Marc Stein reports. Valanciunas has seemingly been on the trading block since he became eligible to be moved this season after signing with the Wizards in free agency this past summer. The veteran big man has been in countless trade rumors but was finally dealt to the Kings, who have been very active on the trade market, recently acquiring Zach LaVine in a deal involving De'Aaron Fox being shipped to the Spurs. The veteran big man will get Sacramento some depth in the frontcourt, making up an intimidating frontline with Domantas Sabonis.
Hauls in 17 boards vs. Charlotte

Valanciunas logged 14 points (6-14 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 17 rebounds and four assists over 29 minutes during Monday's 124-114 win over the Hornets. Valanciunas grabbed a season-high 17 rebounds Monday, eight of which came on the offensive glass, en route to his second-straight double-double and 14th of the regular season. Alex Sarr continues to rehab his way back from a left ankle sprain, and Valanciunas will remain as Washington's starting center for as long as the No. 2 overall pick is sidelined. Valanciunas and the Wizards will wrap up their quick two-game road trip Wednesday against Brooklyn.
Double-double in Saturday's win

Valanciunas produced 13 points (6-11 FG, 1-1 FT), 10 rebounds, two assists and one steal over 30 minutes during Saturday's 105-103 victory over the Timberwolves. Making his third straight start in place of Alex Sarr (ankle), Valanciunas came through with his 13th double-double of the season after managing just 11 points and 14 boards total in the first two games Sarr sat out. The 30 minutes represented the veteran center's highest workload since Dec. 7, and if Valanciunas is on the trade block as has been rumored, he's showing contenders he can still contribute.
Struggles shooting as starter

Valanciunas finished Thursday's 134-96 loss to the Lakers with five points (1-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds and three assists across 18 minutes. Valanciunas once again got the starting nod Thursday while Alex Sarr (ankle) remains out. Valanciunas struggled to find his shot in the outing but led the Wizards' starters in assists. Valanciunas has been relatively quiet offensively as of late, failing to reach double figures in scoring in six of his last 10 outings.
Starting Wednesday sans Sarr

Valanciunas will start in Wednesday's game against the Raptors, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports. Valanciunas will make his ninth start of the season Wednesday in the absence of Alex Sarr (ankle). Over eight starts for the Wizards this year, the veteran big man has averaged 14.8 points, 11.0 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.6 blocks in 25.1 minutes.
