Top Zach LaVine News

  • Kings' Zach LaVine: Logs 20 points in starting role

    LaVine provided 20 points (8-19 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals across 37 minutes during Tuesday's 100-98 loss to the Mavericks.

    After coming off the bench in his return from a nine-game absence, LaVine reclaimed his role in the starting five and carried a heavy load (37 minutes) in the narrow loss. His heavy usage is a strong indication that LaVine will play without a minute restriction, though an upcoming back-to-back set this weekend might raise concerns about his availability.

  • Kings' Zach LaVine: Back in starting five

    LaVine is in the Kings' starting lineup against the Mavericks on Tuesday, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports.

    LaVine came off the bench against the Bucks on Sunday in what was his first game back from a nine-game absence due to a sprained left ankle. The veteran wing will be back in the starting lineup for Tuesday's nightcap and take the spot from Keegan Murray, who is expected to miss at least the next three weeks due to an ankle injury.

  • Kings' Zach LaVine: Pours in 20 points in return

    LaVine notched 20 points (6-12 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 6-6 FT), three rebounds and four assists over 36 minutes during Sunday's 115-98 loss to the Bucks.

    Lavine came off the bench in his return to action, and the team put no cap restrictions on his minutes. Lavine looked every bit himself as he nailed 50 percent of his shots after missing nine games. The Kings have a back-to-back set next week, and it wouldn't be surprising to see LaVine scratched for one of those games as he continues to work his way back from the ankle injury.

  • Kings' Zach LaVine: Won't start vs. Milwaukee

    LaVine (ankle) won't start against the Bucks on Sunday, Deuce Mason of NBC Sports California reports.

    LaVine is available to return from a nine-game absence due to a sprained left ankle, and although head coach Doug Christie said pregame he won't be on a minutes restriction, the veteran swingman will come off the bench. Still, his return will leave fewer minutes available for the likes of Keon Ellis, Nique Clifford, Malik Monk and Doug McDermott. Over 23 regular-season appearances in the 2025-26 campaign, LaVine has averaged 20.2 points, 3.0 rebounds and 2.3 assists in 32.8 minutes per contest.

  • Kings' Zach LaVine: Won't be limited Sunday

    Head coach Doug Christie said pregame that LaVine (ankle) won't be on a minutes restriction in Sunday's matchup against the Bucks, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

    LaVine will return from a nine-game absence due to a sprained left ankle and is expected to take on his usual workload against Milwaukee. With the veteran swingman back in action, there will be fewer minutes available for the likes of Keon Ellis, Malik Monk, Nique Clifford and Doug McDermott. Over 23 regular-season appearances thus far, LaVine has averaged 20.2 points, 3.0 rebounds and 2.3 assists in 32.8 minutes per contest.

  • Kings' Zach LaVine: Cleared to play vs. Milwaukee

    LaVine (ankle) is available for Sunday's game against the Bucks, Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints.com reports.

    LaVine has been officially cleared to return from a nine-game absence due to a left ankle sprain that he sustained against the Timberwolves on Dec. 14. It's unclear whether he'll be on a minutes restriction, but his return means less minutes will be available for the likes of Keon Ellis, Malik Monk and Nique Clifford. Prior to his injury, LaVine was averaging 20.2 points, 3.0 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 2.7 threes over 32.8 minutes per contest.

  • Kings' Zach LaVine: Iffy for Sunday

    LaVine (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bucks.

    LaVine hasn't played since Dec. 14 due to a left ankle sprain, though his questionable tag suggests he's nearing a return to action. If the veteran swingman is cleared to return Sunday, Keon Ellis, Precious Achiuwa and Doug McDermott are candidates to see a dip in minutes.

  • Kings' Zach LaVine: Out again Friday

    LaVine (ankle) will not play Friday against the Suns.

    LaVine will be sidelined for a ninth straight game Friday and remains without a timetable to return. His next chance to play comes Sunday against the Bucks.

  • Kings' Zach LaVine: Another absence coming

    LaVine (ankle) will not play Thursday against the Celtics.

    LaVine will miss his eighth straight game Thursday and continues to be ruled out a day in advance of games. Because he hasn't returned to practice yet, a return Friday against the Suns seems improbable.

  • Kings' Zach LaVine: Ruled out for Tuesday

    LaVine (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Clippers.

    LaVine will miss his seventh straight game due to a left ankle sprain, and he can be considered doubtful ahead of Thursday's game against the Celtics until the Kings offer an update on his status. With the veteran swingman sidelined, Nique Clifford and Keon Ellis are candidates for increased minutes.

  • Kings' Zach LaVine: To be re-evaluated in one week

    LaVine (ankle) will be re-evaluated in one week, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports.

    LaVine is progressing in his rehab after spraining his left ankle in a loss to the Timberwolves on Dec. 14, though he'll need at least one more week to recover. With the 30-year-old shooting guard remaining on the shelf, Nique Clifford should continue to see increased playing time.

  • Kings' Zach LaVine: Ruled out for Tuesday

    LaVine (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Pistons.

    LaVine is continuing to rehab from a left ankle sprain and hasn't taken the court since Dec. 14. The team has yet to provide another update on his availability moving forward, outside the report that he'll remain sidelined Tuesday, so his status for Saturday's game against the Mavs should come into focus later in the week.

  • Kings' Zach LaVine: Out for at least one week

    The Kings announced Tuesday that LaVine (ankle) will be re-evaluated in one week, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

    After exiting Sunday's loss to the Timberwolves, LaVine has been diagnosed with a moderate left ankle sprain and will need to miss at least Sacramento's next three contests. With the star guard out of action, Nique Clifford appears to be the most likely choice to replace LaVine in the starting lineup. It's also possible Keon Ellis will see increased minutes for the time being.

  • Kings' Zach LaVine: Won't return Sunday

    LaVine will not return to Sunday's game against the Timberwolves due to a left ankle injury.

    LaVine twisted his left ankle early in Sunday's game, and while he attempted to play through it, he bowed out during the third quarter. LaVine will end his evening with 10 points (4-8 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), one rebound, one assist and two turnovers in 16 minutes, and for now, he should be considered questionable for Thursday's game in Portland. Nique Clifford started the second half in LaVine's absence.

  • Kings' Zach LaVine: Off injury report for Sunday

    LaVine (thumb) is not listed on the Kings' injury report for Sunday's game against the Timberwolves.

    After missing Thursday's loss to Denver due to a right thumb issue, LaVine is set to return to action Sunday. Over his last five appearances, the veteran swingman has averaged 22.6 points, 2.8 assists, 2.6 rebounds and 1.0 steals, shooting 43.2 percent from beyond the arc on 7.4 attempts per tilt.

  • 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.

  • Kings' Zach LaVine: Inconsistent season continues

    LaVine recorded 16 points (6-13 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, three assists and one steal across 38 minutes during Monday's 116-105 loss to the Pacers.

    LaVine got off to a torrid start in 2025-26, scoring at least 30 points in five of his first six games, but the campaign has quickly become an erratic one since then. The star guard is struggling to do much outside of the scoring department, averaging 17.3 points, 3.1 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 0.9 steals in 32.3 minutes per contest across his last 16 games.

  • Kings' Zach LaVine: Erupts for 42 points in win

    LaVine racked up 42 points (12-24 FG, 8-13 3Pt, 10-11 FT), five rebounds, one assist and one steal over 39 minutes during Saturday's 127-111 victory over the Heat.

    After scoring just two points on 20 percent shooting from the field during Wednesday's loss to the Rockets, LaVine bounced back in a major way. The veteran swingman caught fire from three-point range and set season-high marks in points and triples. While the 30-year-old's performance Saturday is encouraging, he has been inconsistent of late. LaVine has finished with single-digit points in four of his last 10 outings, averaging 17.4 points, 2.6 rebounds and 2.4 assists while shooting 45.4 percent from the floor in 31.3 minutes per contest during that span.

  • Kings' Zach LaVine: Posts dud in loss

    LaVine finished with two points (1-5 FG, 0-3 3Pt), one rebound, one assist, two blocks and one steal over 19 minutes during Wednesday's 121-95 loss to the Rockets.

    For the second time in his last five outings, LaVine was held to single-digit points. The Kings dropped to 5-17 with this loss, and the noise around a potential LaVine trade is only going to grow louder as a result.

  • Kings' Zach LaVine: Drops 34 points with six dimes

    LaVine accumulated 34 points (12-23 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 6-9 FT), two rebounds and six assists across 39 minutes during Friday's 128-119 loss to the Jazz.

    LaVine had been struggling coming into Friday's game, shooting just 36.8 percent from the floor and 16.7 percent from distance over a three-game stretch, so it was nice to see him snap out of the funk. This was his first 30-plus-point performance since Nov. 1, and his fourth of the season. LaVine will look to keep it going Sunday with a favorable matchup with Memphis.
