Full Injury Report for 2023-24 Season
In addition to Lyles, the Kings have several other players currently injured or on the injured reserve:
- Davion Mitchell - Groin strain - Out indefinitely
- Harrison Barnes - Ankle sprain - Day-to-day
- Kevin Huerter - Hamstring strain - Out 2-3 weeks
- De'Aaron Fox - Back spasms - Day-to-day
Lyles' Injury Update
Lyles is expected to be reevaluated in two weeks due to an MCL sprain, according to Frankie Cartoscelli of KHTK Sactown Sports 1140.
The Kings are hoping for a speedy recovery for Lyles, as he has been a valuable contributor to the team this season, averaging 10.2 points and 5.7 rebounds per game.
Importance of Bench Unit
With Lyles out, the Kings will need their bench unit to step up and provide consistent production. Key players such as Malik Monk, Chimezie Metu, and Terence Davis will be expected to fill the void left by Lyles.
The Kings' ability to overcome Lyles' absence and maintain their current momentum will be a testament to the depth of their roster and the resilience of their bench unit.
