Vince Carter

Kings' Vince Carter (illness) won't play Saturday night

Sacramento Kings guard/forward Vince Carter won't play in Saturday's game, reports Jason Jones of the Sacramento Bee.

What It Means:

Carter has been having issues with kidney stones, which have sidelined him for six games now. With him out, Buddy Hield and Garrett Temple have benefited. But Hield (ankle) is out on Saturday so Bogdan Bogdanovic and Justin Jackson should see more minutes on the wing.

In 9 games, the 40-year-old Carter has averaged 6.2 FanDuel points and 12 minutes per game so far in 2017.
