Carter (wrist) isn't on the injury report for Wednesday's game versus the Warriors. Carter will return to action Wednesday after missing Sacramento's previous contest due to right wrist soreness. The rookie guard is averaging 4.2 points, 2.8 rebounds and 1.4 assists in 11.8 minutes across his previous five appearances.
Carter (wrist) will not play Sunday against the Wizards. Carter was unable to practice Saturday due to soreness, so this is expected news. With the rookie sidelined, guys like Kevin Huerter, Jordan McLaughlin and Colby Jones could potentially see more run.
Carter didn't participate in Saturday's practice due to right wrist soreness and will likely be out for Sunday's game versus the Wizards, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports. Carter's expected absence could open up minutes for Kevin Huerter, Jordan McLaughlin (personal) and Colby Jones. However, fantasy managers should look out for an official injury report to clarify Ellis' status against Washington.
Carter (shoulder) has been cleared to play Thursday against the Rockets, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports. Carter was added to the injury report due to a left shoulder issue, but it isn't significant enough to keep him from Thursday's clash. He's averaging 5.7 points, 4.2 rebounds and 1.8 assists over his last six appearances, all off the bench.
Carter (shoulder) participated in shootaround ahead of Thursday's game versus the Rockets, Brenden Nunes of KHTK Sactown Sports 1140 reports. Carter is officially listed as questionable Thursday due to left shoulder soreness. However, the rookie guard's participation in shootaround is a good sign of his availability against Houston.
Carter (shoulder) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Rockets. Carter is nursing left shoulder soreness that's jeopardizing his status for Thursday. The rookie first-rounder is logging just 14.3 minutes per game over six appearances this season, so his potential absence is unlikely to have significant implications on Sacramento's rotation. With Jordan McLaughlin (personal) out against Houston, however, the Kings may need to lean heavily on De'Aaron Fox, and Keon Ellis could have an expanded role.
Carter had 13 points (4-11 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 3-4 FT), seven rebounds, two assists and one steal over 23 minutes during Sunday's 129-99 victory over the Warriors. Playing in just his second NBA game, Carter had a much better showing compared to his scoreless debut against the Grizzlies. He was able to get extended run due to the lopsided score, however, so he remains a player to monitor in deeper formats for the time being. Plus, the Kings were without De'Aaron Fox (glute) on Sunday.
The Kings recalled Carter from the G League's Stockton Kings Friday, making him available for Friday's game versus the Grizzlies, Shams Charania of ESPN reports. Carter underwent left shoulder surgery in July and has spent the beginning of the 2024-25 campaign rehabbing. However, Carter has now made two G league appearances, averaging 23.0 points, 10.0 rebounds, 5.0 assists, 2.5 steals and 2.5 blocks in 33.2 minutes. The rookie guard will likely compete for depth minutes in Sacramento's backcourt.
The Kings assigned Carter (conditioning) to the G League's Stockton Kings on Thursday, Sean Cunningham of Fox 40 Sacramento reports. Carter has missed Sacramento's previous two NBA contests while returning to competitive conditioning. However, there is a good chance the rookie guard will be able to suit up against the Memphis Hustle on Thursday.
