Following a successful four-game road stint with a 3-1 record, the Sacramento Kings are set to play at the Golden 1 Center against the Toronto Raptors this Wednesday evening.

Recently, the Kings faced the Raptors in Toronto last Saturday, where they experienced a narrow three-point defeat in overtime during the second game of a back-to-back series. Now, returning to their home court with renewed energy, the Kings aim for a victory in this rematch.

In their last encounter, Kings’ standout point guard De’Aaron Fox had a tough game, missing all 11 of his three-point attempts, while DeMar DeRozan scored 33 points and Domantas Sabonis achieved his second triple-double of the season.

The Raptors saw significant contributions from RJ Barrett, Ochai Agbaji, Gradey Dick, and Chris Boucher last Saturday, all of whom the Kings will need to keep in check during their upcoming game.

Both teams have announced their injury updates for the upcoming Wednesday game in Sacramento:

Sacramento Kings:

Kevin Huerter – QUESTIONABLE (illness)

Devin Carter – OUT (shoulder)

Orlando Robinson – OUT (knee)

Toronto Raptors:

Scottie Barnes – OUT (orbital)

Bruce Brown – OUT (knee)

Kelly Olynyk – OUT (back)

Immanuel Quickley – DOUBTFUL (pelvic)

The injury report is quite similar to the one released last Saturday, though Kevin Huerter might make a comeback after missing two games due to an illness.

Toronto’s All-Star forward Scottie Barnes continues to be sidelined with an orbital fracture for the next few weeks, yet the Raptors performed well against the Kings without him last Saturday.

Toronto is also likely to be without Immanuel Quickley, who is dealing with a pelvic contusion. The Raptors will depend on their role players, including Gradey Dick and RJ Barrett, to continue their strong performances.

The game is scheduled to start at 7 p.m. PST on Wednesday.
