Malik Monk will miss Saturday’s game against the Cavaliers due to illness, following an 18-point performance against the Clippers. With Monk sidelined, the Kings are expected to lean on their bench, providing more playing time for reserves like Nique Clifford, Devin Carter, and Daeqwon Plowden. Clifford is expected to take Monk’s spot in the starting lineup, as the team also deals with the absence of Zach LaVine and De’Andre Hunter.
