Not much has gone well for the Sacramento Kings, as they’re dealing with injuries while trying to compete for the Western Conference play-in. The team announced Thursday that rookie guard Devin Carter has been diagnosed with a right shoulder contusion.

Carter is considered day-to-day and will be listed as questionable versus the Charlotte Hornets, per the team.

He suffered the injury in the second quarter versus the Orlando Magic on Saturday, March 29.
