More Kings coverage from Sactown Sports

The Sacramento Kings’ rotation just got much thinner.

Sixth Man of the Year runner-up Malik Monk will be sidelined for at least two weeks due to a right ankle sprain, per the team’s announcement on Monday afternoon.

Monk, who exited Sunday’s win in Phoenix after taking a bad step when attempting to get around a screen set by Suns big Mason Plumlee, underwent imaging that revealed no structural damage to his injured ankle.

It’s been a tough start to the season for Monk, as the 26-year-old holds averages 12.6 points, 3.0 rebounds, and 2.8 assists per game on 44 percent shooting from the field and 27 percent from three-point range. Now, the guard will be sidelined for two weeks, meaning he will miss at least six games as Sacramento attempts to piece together a strong opening to the regular season.

When is the next Sacramento Kings game?

Sacramento will begin a four-game homestand on Wednesday night at Golden 1 Center against Devin Booker and the Phoenix Suns.

The Kings got the best of Phoenix on Sunday night thanks to a herculean closing effort from DeMar DeRozan (24 points in the fourth quarter and overtime) and De’Aaron Fox (eight points in overtime).
