Duren - QUESTIONABLE
Harris - QUESTIONABLE

Kings beat Cavs yesterday.

Hopefully we take them seriously even though they’re on a back 2 back.

They'll probably be confident. They're trying to stay in the play-in and might eek out Phoenix -- who are in 11th.. Isn't that crazy?

It’s definitely crazy considering last year’s record that our trajectory seems so much better than Phoenix’s.

They’re both confirmed as OUT now

I wonder if we’re focused on staying in the 6th seed.

I hope we can have everyone back for the last 2 against the Bucks.

Duren Will play!

That’s good news. ESPN updated it at the last minute.

Hopefully Tobias is ok.

He’s usually super durable.

Tobias has a Cade T-shirt - ha

Got to say - what a difference the Pistons are with Duren back in there. Great passes, chemistry with his teammates, and defensive rebounding. Yes, his at the rim defense isn't always the best, but he's still a beast.

Auser falls for the old vet trick.

Looks like some of the prayers from the board were answered.

Even without Tobias, Fontecchio only got 4 minutes.

Looks like he’ll be phased out of the playoff rotation barring injury.

Slow day at the office.

This game thread is more dead than a late west coast start and the NCAA championship game hasn’t even started.

I kind of always feel like Ausar should play more when I'm watching the game, and tonight is no exception he's a +18 in 22 minutes of play. Sasser also with a really impressive +16 in just 7 minutes of play. Just 13 games played "post all-star break" but Sasser's stats in those game are actually really great.

Too close for comfort.

It's a real bummer he just couldn't get back to what he was end of last season. Oh well.

Wow Lavine

**** Lavine

Can’t wait til Lavine goes to a contender someday, plays the same way, and some casual (national media) says “he turned a corner since he joined the Warriors”
