The Sacramento Kings were defeated on Wednesday, losing 120-116 to the Phoenix Suns to begin the 2025-26 campaign. Domantas Sabonis did not play as he continues to battle back from a right hamstring injury. Although Sacramento almost defeated Phoenix, Sabonis' presence was still missed. The Kings are hopeful that he can return soon and have a big overall season.
On Friday night, the Kings will host the Utah Jazz. According to the NBA injury report, Sabonis is listed as questionable to play with a right hamstring strain. Meanwhile, Nique Clifford and Keegan Murray are both out with injuries.
