Tue Apr 1 | 18:38 | Kevin Huerter Cleared For Tuesday's Matchup |
Chicago Bulls guard/forward Kevin Huerter (thumb) will be back in action on Tuesday against the Toronto Raptors. He missed Monday's loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder due to a thumb sprain. Following a disappointing first half of the season in Sacramento, Huerter has flourished with the Bulls, averaging 12.9 points, 3.5 rebounds, 3.1 assists, and 1.3 steals. He has improved his numbers to 15.1 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 4.3 assists since joining the starting lineup on March 13. |

Sat Mar 22 | 20:50 | Kevin Huerter Cleared For Saturday |
Chicago Bulls guard Kevin Huerter (thumb) is available ahead of Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. As expected, Huerter has been cleared to play after being listed as probable on the injury report. Huerter is expected to have an increased role in the rotation with Tre Jones (foot) going down for at least the next two weeks. Huerter was already playing a fairly significant role with 29 minutes or more in each of his last seven games. During that span, Huerter has scored double digit points in six of those seven games. He's worth a look as a streaming option with the Bulls shorthanded at the guard spot. |

Thu Mar 6 | 09:34 | Kevin Huerter Questionable For Thursday's Game |
Chicago Bulls guard/forward Kevin Huerter (knee) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Orlando Magic. He may be forced to skip a third consecutive game due to a right knee sprain. Huerter's absence has allowed Dalen Terry to make back-to-back starts, with Julian Phillips seeing more playing time off the bench. However, neither has made a significant impact in fantasy basketball. If Huerter doesn't return on Thursday, he will have only one more opportunity to suit up this week, as the Bulls visit the Miami Heat on Saturday. |

Tue Mar 4 | 19:37 | Kevin Huerter Not Playing On Tuesday Versus Cleveland |
K.C. Johnson of Chicago Sports Network reports that Chicago Bulls guard/forward Kevin Huerter(knee) is unavailable for Tuesday's matchup against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Huerter sprained his right knee and missed Sunday's game against the Indiana Pacers. He also didn't practice on Monday. Chicago has a lengthy injury list, allowing Dalen Terryand Tre Jonesmore playing time. Jones is likely a better fantasy option of the two, and his value trends upward with Josh Giddey(quadriceps)and Lonzo Ball(wrist) out for this evening's contest. |

Tue Mar 4 | 08:57 | Kevin Huerter Listed As Questionable Tuesday |
Chicago Bulls guard/forward Kevin Huerter (knee) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's matchup against the Cleveland Cavaliers. After spraining his right knee, Huerter missed Sunday's game against the Indiana Pacers and was unable to practice on Monday. His chances of playing in Tuesday's game appear quite slim. Chicago currently has a lengthy injury list, which allows Dalen Terry and Tre Jones to have more playing time. Jones is the superior fantasy option of the two, but his value mainly depends on the statuses of Josh Giddey (quadriceps), Lonzo Ball (wrist), and Coby White (thumb). |

Sun Feb 2 | 21:41 | Kevin Huerter Dealt To Chicago |
According to ESPN's Shams Charania, the Bulls, Kings, and Spurs agreed to a three-team trade on Sunday, resulting in guard Kevin Huerter, guard Tre Jones, and forward/center Zach Collins heading to Chicago. Also included in the trade; the Kings will acquire guard Zach LaVine and guard Sidy Cissoko, with the Spurs obtaining guard De'Aaron Fox and guard Jordan McLaughlin. Huerter played in Atlanta for four seasons before most recently suiting up for the Kings. He had the best year of his career in 2022-23, averaging 15.2 points and 40.2% shooting from behind the arc. However, the 2018 No. 19 overall pick has struggled since then, and he was also limited to 64 games last season due to a shoulder injury. But with Chicago now without LaVine, there is room in the lineup for others to step up. While LaVine's departure likely means ... [ More] |

Thu Dec 19 2024 | 17:31 | Kevin Huerter Available Thursday Versus Lakers |
Fox 40 Sacramento's Sean Cunningham reported that Sacramento Kings guard Kevin Huerter(shoulder) is available for Thursday's matchup with the Los Angeles Lakers. The 26-year-old had been listed as questionable earlier on Thursday due to a left shoulder strain, but he has since been upgraded to available after missing the Kings last game. Huerter is likely not a strong fantasy option this evening, averaging only 9.9 points per game, his lowest since his rookie season seven years ago. |

Wed Dec 18 2024 | 22:07 | Kevin Huerter Uncertain for Thursday |
Sacramento Kings guard Kevin Huerter (shoulder) is uncertain for Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers due to a shoulder sprain. It's unclear how he will be labeled on the injury report, so fantasy managers should check for an update on Thursday. Huerter has been struggling with his shooting this season, posting a career-low 31.1% from beyond the arc and averaging only 9.9 points per game, his lowest since his rookie season. Hopefully, he can round back into form and stay healthy moving forward. If he is sidelined, Keon Ellis would likely see increased playing time. |

Sacramento Kings guard Kevin Huerter(shoulder) will not play against the Denver Nuggets on Monday due to an AC joint sprain in his left shoulder. The 26-year-old missed the King's morning shootaround and is considered day-to-day moving forward. Huerter's next chance to play is on Thursday versus the Lakers. In the meantime, players like Colby Jones and Keon Ellis will likely see an increase in minutes on Monday. |

Sat Dec 14 2024 | 15:19 | Kevin Huerter Suffers Another Shoulder Injury |
Sacramento Kings guard Kevin Huerter (shoulder) will miss time. The 26-year-old suffered an AC joint sprain in his left shoulder during Thursday's game versus the New Orleans Pelicans. For now, the team considers him "day to day." However, since Huerter is coming off surgery on the same shoulder, the Kings will certainly take the cautious approach before allowing him to get back on the floor. After averaging 15.2 points in his first season in Sacramento, he has averaged only 9.9 points during the 2024-25 campaign. But if anything, his absence should allow Keon Ellis to get more work. Still, it's tough for anyone outside of DeMar DeRozan, Domantas Sabonis, and De'Aaron Fox to get consistently involved on the scoring end, especially since all three players get more minutes than most starters around the National Basketball Association. |

Tue Dec 3 2024 | 09:45 | Kevin Huerter Questionable To Face Rockets |
Sacramento Kings guard/forward Kevin Huerter (ankle) has been labeled as questionable for Tuesday's battle against Houston. He has just missed his third game of the season due to an ankle sprain. With Huerter absent on Sunday versus San Antonio, Malik Monk made his first start of the season. He provided a full line in 37 minutes of action, scoring 19 points with seven rebounds, six assists, one steal, and one block. Huerter practiced fully on Monday, which signals that there's a good chance he will return against the Rockets. However, Kings head coach Mike Brown suggested on Sunday that Monk may continue to roll with the starters, which will be a big blow to Huerter's fantasy value. |

Sun Dec 1 2024 | 20:49 | Kevin Huerter Out On Sunday |
Sacramento Kings guard/forward Kevin Huerter (ankle) will not play in Sunday's contest against San Antonio. He injured his right ankle against Portland on Friday and was previously already considered doubtful for the game. Huerter's absence should guarantee extra work for Keon Ellis and Malik Monk. The latter has far more fantasy appeal, especially as Monk is set to make his first start of the campaign. He will be looking to post a third consecutive 20-point game on Sunday. |

Mon Nov 4 2024 | 18:10 | Kevin Huerter Still Out On Monday Night |
Sacramento Kings guard Kevin Huerter (illness) won't play on Monday night in Miami. He hasn't felt well, keeping him off the court for Saturday's overtime loss to the Raptors. Doug McDermott got the start in that one. However, he finished with only four points in 15 minutes. With that in mind, McDermott should be left out of fantasy lineups. Instead, Keon Ellis, who had eight points, two steals, and two blocks versus Toronto, is worth streaming. Ellis will also be an enticing DFS value option. |

Mon Nov 4 2024 | 17:32 | Kevin Huerter Considered Questionable For Monday |
Sacramento Kings guard Kevin Huerter (illness) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Miami Heat. After missing Saturday's contest against the Toronto Raptors, the 26-year-old has a chance to return. He has been productive this season, averaging 11.6 points and 2.8 rebounds across 26.0 minutes over five games. If Huerter is unable to play, expect Keon Ellis and Malik Monk to potentially step into larger roles. Fantasy managers should monitor his status leading up to tip-off for any updates. |

Mon Nov 4 2024 | 12:48 | Kevin Huerter Leaves Shootaround Early, Remains Questionable |
Sacramento Kings guard Kevin Huerter (illness) left the team's shootaround session early on Monday and is still considered questionable for the game against the Miami Heat. He was forced to watch from the sidelines during their last game against the Raptors, and it seems that he's not fully recovered from his illness just yet. If he has to remain sidelined for another game, Malik Monk, Keon Ellis, and Doug McDermott will all see added opportunities. |

Sat Nov 2 2024 | 15:12 | Kevin Huerter Out Versus Toronto |
Sacramento Kings guard Kevin Huerter (illness) won't play on Saturday in Toronto. The 26-year-old struggled in Friday's win over the Hawks, amassing 10 points and shooting 2-for-8 from behind the arc. He's under the weather, so his next chance to get back on the floor will be on Monday in Miami. But until then, Keon Ellis will likely slide into the starting lineup. Ellis averaged 8.8 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 1.7 while shooting 40.4% from deep in 21 starts last season, giving him some upside for fantasy managers in need of a streaming option. |

Wed Oct 23 2024 | 16:38 | Kevin Huerter Cleared To Play In Kings Season Opener |
Sacramento Kings shooting guard Kevin Huerter (shoulder) has been cleared to return from his shoulder injury and will play in the Kings' season opener on Thursday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Huerter was sidelined with the injury for the last 15 games of the 2023-2024 season and will be a welcome return to the Kings' lineup. Head coach Mike Brown noted the other day that the 26-year-old would "probably" start if he was able to return, meaning he may still hold his normal fantasy value that managers have grown accustomed to. His role may be affected, though, by both the acquisition of DeMar DeRozan and the departure of Harrison Barnes. Given Huerter's value is generally dependent on his three-point shooting, fantasy managers should still expect him to get up his usual amount of threes to replace Barnes' volume. DeRozan generally doesn't do much of his damage from behind the arc, so fantasy managers should not worry about Huerter losing volume to him. |

Tue Oct 22 2024 | 21:50 | Kevin Huerter May Play Thursday |
Sacramento Kings guard Kevin Huerter (shoulder) has a chance to play in Thursday's meeting with the Minnesota Timberwolves. He's been working his way back from shoulder surgery. However, head coach Mike Brown said after Tuesday's practice that Huerter "looks good," adding, "he doesn't look like he's missed a beat." Brown also indicated the 26-year-old would "probably" start if he's cleared to play. Fantasy managers can consider Huerter a starting option if that's the case. If he doesn't suit up, Keon Ellis, who averaged 8.8 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 40.4% shooting from deep in 21 starts last season, would be worth streaming in deep category formats. |

Sun Oct 13 2024 | 16:58 | Kevin Huerter Remains Out On Sunday |
Sacramento Kings guard Kevin Huerter (shoulder) has been ruled out for the upcoming preseason contest against the Portland Trail Blazers on Sunday. Huerter continues to work his way back from a season-ending shoulder injury. The good news is that he was cleared for full-contact activity on Friday. However, the Kings are going to continue easing him back into action. It's unclear if Huerter is going to play at all during the preseason. The organization is hopeful he'll be ready for Opening Night. Otherwise, Keon Ellis figures to start at shooting guard, which would give him increased fantasy value. When healthy, Huerter appears to be a better fantasy option than Ellis due to his ability to shoot from distance. |

Sat Oct 12 2024 | 11:05 | Kevin Huerter Cleared For Full-Contact Work |
Sacramento Kings guard Kevin Huerter (shoulder) was cleared for full-contact work. The 26-year-old had the best season of his career in 2022-23, his first in Sacramento, averaging 15.2 points and shooting 40.2% from deep. However, he averaged only 10.2 points in 2023-24 and sustained a season-ending shoulder injury, resulting in a procedure in April. Huerter still has a chance of overtaking Keon Ellis for the starting job at the two spot. Still, it will be tough for him to be a consistent fantasy producer, regardless of his role, considering the Kings have De'Aaron Fox, DeMar DeRozan, and Domantas Sabonis as the primary scoring options. At any rate, Huerter has a few more hurdles to clear, although he should be ready to play soon. |
