Tonight, the Sacramento Kings will face the LA Clippers—a game where health may decide everything. As the Kings look to extend their momentum, De’Aaron Fox and Domantas Sabonis have been pillars, proving the team is no longer just a feel-good story. But for the Clippers, the stakes are even higher. Ivica Zubac anchoring the paint and James Harden now running the offense, are trying to find their rhythm. With both teams dealing with key absences, the real question is who will take the floor and who will sit out? Here’s a closer look at the injury reports and how they could impact this crucial Western Conference showdown.

Who all are injured? What do the injury reports say?

The Clippers are facing a major setback since March 31 as, their superstar, Kawhi Leonard, faced knee issues, with inflammation first flaring up against the Hornets. And looks like they continue to face the same, as he is reported as out in ESPN’s injury report. The hooper will continue to miss multiple weeks ahead. A big-time loss for the Clippers. Well, next is their center Mo Bamba, who is yet to play this season, will be out due to his knee injury.

He struggled with a knee issue last season where a fat pad impingement in his right knee last season, and as a result, fatty tissue behind his kneecap became pinched and inflamed. However, it’s still unclear if his current knee soreness is connected to that same problem. With that said, the Clipper’s injury report also states that P.J. Tucker, who the team will be not going forward with, is looking for the best regarding his future. Here, the Clipper injury comes to an end, but the King’s reports also have some things to say.

While ESPN lists no Kings player as injured, the Sacramento Bee lists Kings Center Orlando Robinson is again out due to his knee injury, that occurred during the training camp. He suffered an MCL sprain in his left knee and was told that he would be re-evaluated after four weeks. Next in line, is their rookie Devin Carter, who is also reported as out, due to his shoulder injury, that was caused during the last season at Providence. He underwent surgery in July to repair a torn labrum in his left shoulder and the team has announced that he will take at least six months for a full recovery. What a loss for a rookie! With this, we come to an end with both the team’s injury reports and will further look into their depth chart.
