Keegan Murray

Murray recorded a solid stat line on Thursday, including four "stocks." And increased defensive production has been critical for the Kings forward, as he exits within an offense that has other options who are more ball-dominant than him. Over the past month, Murray has provided third-round per-game value in nine-cat formats. He and the Kings will look to bounce back when they visit the Timberwolves on Sunday in their final game of Week 8.

As reported earlier Thursday, Clifford will move into the starting lineup due to Zach LaVine being out with a thumb injury. While he isn't a must-add just yet, the rookie guard is worth tracking, especially in case the Kings manage to move one of their veterans ahead of the February trade deadline.

Murray (trap) is available for Monday's game against the Pacers, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports.

Murray is dealing with soreness in his right trapezius muscle, so he's on the Kings' initial injury report for Monday. If he's unable to play against the Pacers, more minutes will be available to Malik Monk and Nique Clifford. Monk offers a higher fantasy ceiling, whether he starts or comes off the bench.

Murray is questionable for Monday's game in Indiana due to right trapezius soreness.
