Precious Achiuwa

Eubanks exited Thursday's game after playing just under four first-quarter minutes after suffering a right thumb injury. The severity and how much time he could potentially miss won't be learned until Friday, but Eubanks' exit leaves the Kings light on options in the post. Maxime Raynaud will play plenty, with Precious Achiuwa slotting into the backup center role. That has also opened up rotation minutes for Doug McDermott.

Achiuwa has not started a game since November 20, but the absence of Domantas Sabonis (knee) has freed up additional minutes for him, among others. The former first-round pick has reached double figures in five of his last seven appearances, but the overall production has not been good enough to merit being rostered in most leagues. Maxime Raynaud (13/9/3 in 23 minutes) made his second straight start on Monday and remains the superior streaming target while the Kings await Sabonis' return.

While Drew Eubanks (4/10/2/1 in 14 minutes) has filled the void in the starting lineup left by the injured Domantas Sabonis, Achiuwa has been more valuable to fantasy managers over the past week. Rostered in three percent of Yahoo! leagues, he has been five rounds more valuable than Eubanks in nine-cat formats. Neither Achiuwa nor Eubanks should be considered a must-roster player, but the former should be the preferred option for managers in dire need of a post player.
