De'Aaron Fox (abdominal) ruled out Thursday as Kings take on Thunder
Sacramento Kings point guard De'Aaron Fox has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder due to lower abdominal tightness.
What It Means:
Fox has been battling a sore left shoulder and he tweaked his groin on Tuesday, and now he's dealing with abdominal tightness. Thursday is the front end of a back-to-back for the Kings, so hopefully King will be able to return for Friday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Cory Joseph will likely replace Fox in the starting lineup on Thursday and there should be more minutes for Yogi Ferrell.
Per numberFire's NBA Heat Map, the Kings-Thunder game has an over/under of 221.5 points on Thursday's four-game slate. The Kings have an implied total of 107.0 points.
