Sacramento Kings Make Roster Move After All-Star Break

The Sacramento Kings are sitting in 9th place in the Western Conference after entering the NBA All-Star break with 28 wins and 27 losses. With 27 games left in the regular season, the Kings have an opportunity to secure a playoff spot in April.

After trading away star point guard De'Aaron Fox before the All-Star break, the Kings were left without a true point guard. Instead, the team relies on Malik Monk, DeMar DeRozan, and Domantas Sabonis to be the primary ballhandlers.

Last summer, the Kings took a chance on guard Devin Carter with their first-round pick in the NBA draft. Carter was sidelined due to injury at the beginning of the season but made 16 appearances before being sent to the Kings' G-League affiliates, the Stockton Kings.

Carter was sent to Stockton to earn more reps and playing time after struggling at the NBA level. Sacramento opted to recall Carter from Stockton after the All-Star break, meaning he'll re-join the team before their matchup against the Golden State Warriors on Friday.
