The Kings will exit the All-Star break with a 12–44 record, which puts them dead last in the Western Conference. It’s obviously been a difficult season thus far. Now, they’ll have to embark upon the final 26 games of their season without their two most talented players.
On Wednesday ESPN’s Shams Charania reported star big man Domantas Sabonis is out for the year after undergoing surgery to repair a torn meniscus. Sabonis suffered the injury in his left knee earlier this year and tried to play through it before electing to undergo surgery. A few minutes later Charania reported All-Star guard Zach LaVine is also done for the year after undergoing hand surgery to repair a tendon.
