Kings' Zach LaVine: Won't play Thursday

LaVine has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Nuggets due to right thumb soreness.

LaVine will miss his first game since Nov. 12 due to a right thumb issue. With Dennis Schroder (hip) considered doubtful for Thursday's contest, Malik Monk, Keon Ellis and Nique Clifford could see a sizeable uptick in minutes. LaVine's next chance to play will come Sunday against the Timberwolves.
