LaRavia

This has LaRavia being re-evaluated between April 4-7, which means he will miss at least three more games. Trey Lyles and Devin Carter should continue to take on extra minutes off the bench with LaRavia sidelined.

LaRavia will miss Thursday’s game with a sore left thumb, freeing up rotation minutes among the Kings’ bench players. Look for Trey Lyles to pick up additional minutes, but he’s difficult to rely on in most fantasy leagues. Devin Carter is available and may absorb a few of those minutes, but the rookie will unlikely impact fantasy basketball.

While LaRavia and Carter were active for Tuesday’s loss to the Thunder, the latter only logged three minutes despite the Kings not having Malik Monk. LaRavia has played consistent rotation minutes, but making a dent in fantasy leagues behind Zach LaVine and DeMar DeRozan has been difficult.

LaRavia will be back after a one-game absence, and he should continue to be an important option off the bench with Domantas Sabonis sidelined. His return may cut into Trey Lyles’ role after Lyles played 30 minutes on Wednesday.

LaRavia is in danger of missing a second-straight game with an illness. The Kings wing has popped in a handful of games with Sacramento and his absence could lead to more minutes for Trey Lyles again.

While LaRavia has not been much of a fantasy asset since joining the Kings, his absence means the Kings will be without three rotation players with Domantas Sabonis and Zach LaVine also ruled out. Trey Lyles should play more minutes off the bench, while Devin Carter may also pick up a few more.

LaRavia was added to the Kings’ injury report late, which doesn’t bode well for his availability. If he cannot play against the Cavaliers, Trey Lyles will take on additional minutes off the bench. Devin Carter may also play more, as the Kings are already without Zach LaVine (personal).

Lyles did not play in Friday’s loss to the Suns, Sacramento’s second game in as many nights. The Kings’ starters played more minutes with Lyles unavailable, and reserve Jake LaRavia only logged 16 minutes off the bench. LaRavia is not worth rostering in most fantasy leagues, regardless of Lyles’ availability.

Jake LaRavia is available. LaRavia sat out Monday’s matchup with New York, and Lyles saw more playing time. Lyles may be sidelined Thursday, but his availability won’t have a meaningful impact in the world of fantasy hoops. LaRavia should handle his usual workload off the bench, but he’s only a viable option in deeper leagues.

LaRavia did not play in Monday’s loss to the Knicks, resulting in more rotation minutes for Trey Lyles. However, this did not significantly impact fantasy basketball, as neither player should be rostered in most fantasy leagues.
