Zach LaVine Heads to the Locker Room as the Kings' Nightmare Season Continues
Underdog NBA reported: 'Status alert: Zach LaVine headed to locker room Tuesday.'
Zach LaVine headed to the locker room on Tuesday, adding another chapter to a season that is rapidly turning into a social experiment.
Underdog NBA flagged the mid-game exit, which immediately nukes any live player props you might have been brave enough to hold. If you were banking on LaVine to hit his overs, you are now at the mercy of the medical staff.
LaVine just dropped 15 points against the Miami Heat on Sunday, but staying on the floor has been a massive hurdle lately. Between recent adductor issues, back soreness, and ankle sprains, his medical chart reads like a stunt double's resume.
The timing is brutal for a Sacramento squad that is currently 1-9 and sitting in 14th place in the Western Conference. For context, you have a better chance of guessing a stranger's iPhone passcode than watching the string together consecutive defensive stops.
They are also a league-worst 1-9 against the spread this season. Backing Sacramento right now is less of a financial decision and more of a cry for help.
We will wait for the official word on whether this is a minor tweak or something that keeps LaVine in street clothes for Friday's matchup against the Portland . Until then, the will just have to figure out how to salvage a season that feels like it was over before Thanksgiving.
