Fox provided 23 points (7-19 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 7-8 FT), five rebounds, seven assists and one steal over 35 minutes during Sunday's 122-95 loss to the Pacers. The 27-year-old guard led all scorers on the night, but it wasn't enough to overcome a balanced Indiana attack that saw seven different Pacers score in double digits. Fox has dished at least five assists in seven straight games, averaging 24.3 points, 7.3 dimes, 4.7 boards, 1.9 threes and 0.9 steals over that stretch, but he hasn't posted those kind of distribution numbers over a full season since 2020-21.

De'Aaron Fox : Drops game-high 23 in loss
Fox provided 23 points (7-19 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 7-8 FT), five rebounds, seven assists and one steal over 35 minutes during Sunday's 122-95 loss to the Pacers. The 27-year-old guard led all scorers on the night, but it wasn't enough to overcome a balanced Indiana attack that saw seven different Pacers score in double digits. Fox has dished at least five assists in seven straight games, averaging 24.3 points, 7.3 dimes, 4.7 boards, 1.9 threes and 0.9 steals over that stretch, but he hasn't posted those kind of distribution numbers over a full season since 2020-21.
Domantas Sabonis : Double-double against former club
Sabonis registered 17 points (8-22 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 0-2 FT), 21 rebounds, four assists and one steal across 31 minutes during Sunday's 122-95 loss to Indiana. The 28-year-old center put together a solid revenge game against the team that traded him to Sacramento in Feb. 2022, with the 21 boards being a new season high for Sabonis. The double-double was his league-leading 26th in 28 appearances, and through 10 games in December, Sabonis is averaging 22.4 points, 14.7 rebounds, 5.3 assists, 0.9 threes and 0.8 steals while shooting 56.9 percent from the floor and 40.9 percent (9-for-22) from long distance.
Domantas Sabonis : Good to go against Indiana
Sabonis (ankle) is available to play Sunday against the Pacers. Sabonis was initially listed as questionable for Sunday's game due to a sprained left ankle, but the veteran center has been cleared to play. Over his last 10 games, Sabonis has averaged 22.8 points, 14.0 rebounds and 6.0 assists over 35.7 minutes per game.
Trey Lyles : Good to go Sunday
Lyles (calf) is listed as available for Sunday's game against Indiana. Lyles will play in his second consecutive outing following a 10-game absence due to a right calf strain. It wouldn't come as a surprise if the big man operates under a minutes restriction, meaning Isaac Jones and Alex Len could be in line for a slight uptick in playing time.
Keegan Murray : Available Sunday
Murray (ankle) is listed as available for Sunday's game against the Pacers. Murray will give it a go Sunday after receiving a questionable tag due to left ankle soreness. The 24-year-old should be able to shoulder his normal workload against Indiana, and over his last five outings, he has averaged 12.4 points, 6.0 rebounds and 1.0 blocks across 30.8 minutes per contest.
Keegan Murray : Iffy to face Indiana
Murray (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Pacers. The 24-year-old will join Domantas Sabonis (ankle) and Trey Lyles (calf) on the injury report due to left-ankle soreness. If Murray is sidelined, Doug McDermott, Keon Ellis and Isaac Jones could see an uptick in playing time Sunday.
Trey Lyles : Questionable for Sunday
Lyles (calf) is listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Pacers. Lyles made his return to game action in Saturday's 103-99 loss to the Lakers following a 10-game absence due to a right calf strain. He played 17 minutes off the bench, finishing with three points (1-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt), three rebounds and one steal. Though he didn't experience any reported setbacks in his return, the Kings could still end up holding out Lyles for maintenance purposes in the second leg of a back-to-back set. With Lyles and Domantas Sabonis (ankle) both deemed questionable, Isaac Jones and Alex Len could end up covering most of the minutes at center if neither Lyles nor Sabonis is available.
Domantas Sabonis : Iffy Sunday
Sabonis (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Pacers. Sabonis is in jeopardy of missing his first game since Nov. 18 due to a sprained left ankle. With Trey Lyles (calf) also questionable, Isaac Jones and Alex Len are candidates for an uptick in playing time if either Lyles or Sabonis is sidelined. Over his last five outings, the star big man has averaged 23.2 points, 15.4 rebounds, 5.8 assists and 1.4 steals across 35.6 minutes per contest.
