Malik Monk Latest News
Partial practice participant
Monk (ankle) participated in the non-contact portions of Thursday's, Frankie Cartoscelli of KHTK Sactown Sports 1140 reports. Monk has missed Sacramento's last five contests due to a right ankle sprain. While the 26-year-old has yet to participate in a full-contact practice, his presence is a good sign regardless. Still, Monk is expected to remain sidelined until at least next week.
Cleared for individual work
Monk (ankle) has been cleared to participate in individual on-court workouts, Law Murray of The Athletic reports. Monk has been sidelined for the Kings' last four games after spraining his right ankle against the Suns on Nov. 10. He'll progress to individual workouts, and his next step will be to return to team drills and 5-on-5 work. In the nine games prior to his injury, Monk had averaged 13.6 points, 3.0 rebounds and 2.9 assists over 26.9 minutes per game.
Slated to miss at least two weeks
Monk was diagnosed with a moderate right ankle sprain Monday and will be sidelined for at least two weeks, Sean Cunningham of Fox 40 Sacramento reports. Monk suffered the injury during Sunday's overtime win over the Suns in the first half and didn't return, finishing with four points, three rebounds, two assists and one steal in seven minutes. With Monk sidelined for a couple of weeks, Kevin Huerter, Keon Ellis, Doug McDermott and Jordan McLaughlin are candidates for increased roles.
Sitting out Monday
Monk (ankle) will not play Monday against the Spurs, NBA reporter Chris Haynes reports. Monk suffered a right ankle injury in Sunday's 127-118 overtime win over the Suns and was unable to return. He's still being evaluated, but the Kings went ahead and ruled him out of Monday's contest. With Monk sidelined, more minutes could be available for Keon Ellis and Doug McDermott in the rotation.
Won't return vs. Phoenix
Monk (ankle) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Suns, Frankie Cartoscelli of KHTK Sactown Sports 1140 reports. Monk limped off the court to the locker room early in the second quarter after spraining his right ankle. Given the quick announcement that he won't return, it wouldn't be surprising if Monk is sidelined for the second leg of the Kings' back-to-back against the Spurs on Monday. Keon Ellis and Doug McDermott will see an uptick in minutes off the bench in Monk's absence.
Heads to locker room Sunday
Monk went back to the locker room after suffering an apparent ankle injury during Sunday's game against the Suns, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports. Monk appeared to suffer an ankle injury while running around a screen before exiting the game for the locker room. If he is unable to return, Keon Ellis and Doug McDermott could see extra run.
Leaves game with ankle injury
Monk (ankle) went to the locker room during the second quarter of Sunday's game against the Suns, Sean Cunningham of Fox 40 Sacramento reports. Monk appeared to turn his right ankle on Mason Plumlee's foot, and the former headed back to the locker room following the injury. If Monk is unable to return to Sunday's game, Keon Ellis and Doug McDermott would figure to see more minutes off the bench.
Pours in 21 points
Monk finished with 21 points (9-16 FG, 3-7 3Pt), four rebounds, four assists and two steals over 38 minutes during Saturday's 131-128 overtime loss to Toronto. Monk managed to finish in double figures in the scoring column after putting up seven and nine points in his previous two appearances. He saw a significant increase in playing time in the loss, logging a season-best 38 minutes while knocking down an impressive 56.3 percent of his tries from the field. There will continue to be plenty of competition for Monk within this Sacramento offense, but it's nice to be reminded that he's still capable of reaching the 20-point threshold.
Notches seven points
Monk posted seven points (2-11 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one block over 26 minutes during Tuesday's 113-96 victory over Utah. Monk couldn't find his rhythm Tuesday night, but fantasy managers will at least appreciate that his usage rate remained sturdy. He's off to a quiet start this campaign, posting averages of 12.5 points, 3.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 2.0 three-pointers through four outings.
