There won’t be a repeat performance for Yogi Ferrell, at least not Thursday night.
The third-year guard will miss the Kings’ preseason game against the Los Angeles Lakers with a sprained right thumb, the team announced.
Ferrell suffered the injury in the second quarter of Monday’s 106-102 preseason road victory over the Phoenix Suns, but it didn’t seem to affect his performance. He led the Kings in scoring (26 points on 9-of-14 shooting, including 6 of 9 from 3-point range) while playing a game-high-tying 30 minutes.
X-rays were negative and he’s listed as day-to-day.
