Kings' Killian Hayes: Drops season-high 16 Sunday
Hayes chipped in 16 points (5-9 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, eight assists and two blocks in 38 minutes during Sunday's 116-111 win over Utah.
The 16 points were a season high for Hayes, who didn't make his season debut in the NBA until after the All-Star break. The 24-year-old guard has started two of the last three games in an injury-depleted Kings backcourt, scoring in double digits each time, but his minutes are contingent on the health of players like Russell Westbrook (foot) and Malik Monk (ankle).

Kings' Killian Hayes: Gets starting nod Wednesday
Hayes finished Wednesday's 117-109 loss to the Hornets with 11 points (5-9 FG, 1-3 3Pt), two rebounds and four assists across 31 minutes.
Hayes was inserted into the starting lineup after both Russell Westbrook (quad) and Devin Carter (calf) were ruled out. While Hayes was able to drop a season-high 11 points, his overall production left a little to be desired. Should he remain in the starting lineup, Hayes could be worth a look in deeper formats. However, both Westbrook and Carter could return as soon as Saturday, which would eliminate any chance Hayes has of putting up viable fantasy production.

Kings' Killian Hayes: Starting Wednesday
Hayes will start Wednesday versus the Hornets, Brenden Nunes of KHTK Sactown Sports 1140 reports.
Hayes is getting the start with Russell Westbrook (quad) unavailable, and he'll be joined in the first unit by DeMar DeRozan, Nique Clifford, Precious Achiuwa and Maxime Raynaud. Hayes is capable of racking up dimes and defensive stats when given the minutes, so he's worth a look as a streamer for managers who need help in those categories.

Kings' Killian Hayes: Gets 10-day deal with Sacramento
The Kings signed Hayes to a 10-day contract Sunday, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports.
Hayes has spent the entire 2025-26 season in the G League with the Cleveland Charge after failing to make the Cavaliers' 15-man squad at the end of training camp in mid-October. In the G League, he is averaging 23.1 points, 8.1 assists, 3.9 rebounds, 2.3 threes and 1.7 steals over 31.8 minutes per game. Hayes -- who was selected by the Pistons with the No. 7 pick in the 2020 NBA Draft -- appeared in six regular-season games (five starts) for the Nets during the 2024-25 campaign and averaged 9.0 points, 5.2 assists, 3.0 rebounds and 1.3 threes over 27.0 minutes per game. He'll have the chance to establish a role for himself in the Kings' rotation now that Zach LaVine (finger) and De'Andre Hunter (eye) are both out for the rest of the season.
