Murray Bros showdown! Maybe Kris will get a few of Rob’s now-available minutes at backup PF.

Without De'Aaron Fox the Kings were down by as much as 39 points in their loss in Houston yesterday.

The Kings are 0-3 without Fox.

BIG Q said:

I hope not. Im resigned to the losing. Let's just get the losing started so I can start dreaming of the first pick. My solace will be good play and numbers for the young guys.

Ayton is finding his place with this young team. I like how he fits.

Scoot getting hurt when he did really stinks. He and Ayton looked like they were just developing some chemistry.
