The Sacramento Kings will be without DeMar DeRozan for the remainder of Wednesday's matchup against the Phoenix Suns.
on Sunday, star sixth man Malik Monk exited the game in the second quarter with an ankle injury, as the Kings had to pull out an overtime win without him.
The Kings have announced that DeRozan will not return to Wednesday's matchup against the Suns after leaving the game with lower back tightness.— Sacramento Kings DeRozan was able to play 17 first-half minutes but did not return with the team to begin the second half. In the first half, DeRozan certainly looked off, attempting just two shots and making one, ending his night with 2 points, 3 assists, 5 rebounds, 1 steal, and 2 blocks.
The Kings took a five-point lead heading into the halftime break, largely due to the tremendous play of All-Star guard De'Aaron Fox. With Monk and DeRozan both sidelined, it puts a lot of offensive responsibility on Fox, but it is nothing he cannot handle.
