The Kings recalled Robinson from the Stockton Kings of the G League on Saturday, Sean Cunningham of Fox 40 Sacramento reports.

Robinson made his G League debut Friday and recorded 26 points, five rebounds, four assists, two steals and two blocks in 29 minutes of action. However, with Sacramento, Robinson is expected to compete for depth minutes in the frontcourt.

Gibson isn't in the starting five for Saturday's game versus the Bucks.

Gibson will be replaced by Miles Bridges in the starting lineup Saturday. In his only appearance coming off the bench this season, Gibson logged just four minutes of action.

Davis (foot) is listed as probable for Saturday's game versus the Pelicans.

Davis continues to deal with left foot plantar fasciitis but isn't expected to sit out Saturday. The superstar big man has logged at least 30 minutes in all but one of his 11 appearances this season.

Wembanyama is listed as questionable for Saturday's game versus the Mavericks due to a right knee contusion.

Wembanyama is in danger of missing his first contest of the season Saturday due to a right knee injury. If the superstar big man is unable to suit up against Dallas, Zach Collins and Sandro Mamukelashvili are candidates to receive increased playing time.

Sengun totaled 16 points (3-9 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 9-10 FT), 10 rebounds, 10 assists, two blocks and two steals across 33 minutes during Friday's 125-104 victory over the Clippers.

The Rockets dominated in this 21-point win over the Clippers, and Sengun played a dominant role, limiting Ivica Zubac's impact on both ends of the court and recording his first triple-double of the campaign. Sengun has also recorded five double-doubles this month. He's averaging 18.6 points, 10.8 rebounds, 5.0 assists and 2.1 blocks per game in November.

The Clippers recalled Bamba (knee) from the San Diego Clippers of the G League on Friday.

Bamba has yet to suit up this season due to left knee soreness but spent a few days in the G League to continue his rehab program. The 25-year-old big man's next chance to return to action is Sunday's matchup with Utah.

Missi chipped in six points (2-6 FG, 2-2 FT), 12 rebounds and one steal over 29 minutes during Friday's 101-94 victory over the Nuggets.

Missi didn't have his best shooting performance Friday, but the inconsistency in the scoring column is somewhat expected for a rookie who was always believed to be a work in progress on the offensive end of the court. He's making his presence felt on the glass, though. This 12-rebound haul was Missi's third straight game with double-digit boards, and he's averaging 7.6 boards per contest since he was moved to the starting lineup Nov. 1.

Poeltl finished Friday's 99-95 loss to the Pistons with 25 points (12-21 FG, 1-4 FT), 19 rebounds, three assists, three blocks and one steal in 35 minutes.

The Raptors came up short in this battle of rebuilding franchises, but Poeltl delivered an impressive performance on both ends of the court. The big man posted a season-high mark in points and tied his season-high mark in rebounds. This was his sixth double-double of the season.

The Thunder signed Carlson to a standard one-year NBA contract Saturday, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.

After being cut by the Raptors prior to the start of the season, Carlson had been playing in the G League with Raptors 905 and averaged 14.3 points, 8.7 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.7 blocks in 31.6 minutes. He'll now join Oklahoma City and provide some depth at center for a Thunder squad that's without Chet Holmgren (hip), Jaylin Williams (hip) and Isaiah Hartenstein (hand).

Sabonis ended with 23 points (10-15 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 3-3 FT), 12 rebounds, four assists and three blocks over 40 minutes during Friday's 130-126 overtime loss to the Timberwolves.

Per Sean Cunningham of Fox 40 Sacramento, Sabonis was dealing with cramps in his back during the game, but that didn't stop him from producing his 12th straight double-double. The 28-year-old center continues to add to his skill set, and in addition to averaging 20.2 points, 12.5 boards and 6.6 assists per game, Sabonis is contributing 0.9 three-pointers per conetst while shooting 40 percent (12-for-30) from beyond the arc -- marks which would both be career highs if he can maintain them. With the Kings playing the second night of a back-to-back Saturday against the Jazz, Sabonis could get his first rest day of the season.
