Raynaud is out for Monday's Summer League game against the Suns due to right wrist soreness, Sean Cunningham of Fox 40 Sacramento reports.

The rookie big man suffered the injury in Saturday's win over the Bulls, and he can be considered day-to-day going forward. Wednesday's clash with the Cavaliers marks Raynaud's next opportunity to play while he looks to make an impression for the Kings this summer.

Wembanyama has announced he's recovered from the blood clot in his right shoulder, French sports journalist Maxime Aubin reports.

Wembanyama underwent surgery on the deep vein thrombosis in his right shoulder back in March, and the Spurs have officially cleared him to return to action. It's unclear if the superstar big man will be a full participant in training camp this fall, but fantasy managers should certainly feel encouraged to hear he's healthy. Wembanyama averaged 24.3 points, 11.0 rebounds, 3.8 blocks, 3.7 assists and 1.1 steals per game over 46 appearances in 2024-25, and it sounds like he'll be ready to go for the start of the 2025-26 campaign.

Filipowski logged 21 points (9-21 FG, 1-8 3Pt, 2-4 FT), six rebounds, one assist and a block in 24 minutes during Sunday's 103-93 Summer League loss to the Warriors.

Filipowski has been dominant to kick off Summer League in Las Vegas, recording 32 points (12-17 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 5-8 FT), six rebounds, five assists and a block in his first outing and following that up with a 21-6-1-1 line Sunday. Filipowski had a solid rookie season, averaging 9.6 points, 6.1 rebounds, and 1.9 assists in 21.1 minutes per game, and he will look to take a step forward in his second year with the team searching for an identity after a busy offseason.

Sarr recorded 16 points (7-15 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-4 FT), 12 rebounds, eight blocks and two assists in 29 minutes during Sunday's 102-96 Summer League win over the Nets.

Sarr dominated the paint Sunday, posting a game-high 12 rebounds, including four on the offensive glass and a game-high eight blocks. Sarr was a quality shot blocker during his rookie season, averaging 1.5 blocks per contest, and he has been impressive in that category thus far at Summer League, logging 11 blocks through two games.

Ware logged 21 points (8-14 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 3-5 FT), nine rebounds, three blocks and a steal in 27 minutes during Sunday's 92-72 loss to the Cavaliers.

Ware was a bright spot for Miami in their loss Sunday, logging game-highs in scoring and blocks while leading his team in rebounding. Ware is the focal point for the Heat during Summer League, and Sunday was a great performance following a mediocre first game in Las Vegas, where he logged 10 points, six rebounds, one steal and a block while holding the team's lowest plus-minus at -21.

Hukporti recorded nine points (2-4 FG, 5-6 FT), 13 rebounds, three blocks, two steals and an assist in 22 minutes during Sunday's 94-81 Summer League loss to the Celtics.

Hukporti's offensive numbers may not stand out, but his work on the boards and defensively was highly impactful. Hukporti tied for game-highs in rebounds and blocks while also contributing two steals. He was especially dominant on the offensive glass, creating six extra possessions for his team.

Bassey finished with 22 points (8-12 FG, 6-6 FT), 13 rebounds, one assist, two steals and three blocks across 22 minutes during Sunday's 94-81 Summer League win against the Knicks.

Bassey put on a show Sunday in the Las Vegas Summer League, as he was getting it done on both ends of the floor. The Western Kentucky product has no shortage of experience, having played for the 76ers and Spurs over the last four years, but he's now in limbo as he tries to prove his worth and secure another deal to remain in the league for the 2025-26 campaign.

Nnaji is out for the remainder of Sunday's Summer League game against the Celtics due to lower back tightness, James L. Edwards III of The Athletic reports.

Nnaji exited the game in the third quarter and will not be able to return. He concludes the contest with two points and a rebound in nine minutes of action. His status for Tuesday's game against the Nets is now in question.

Maluach (rest) won't play in Sunday's Summer League game against the Hawks, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.

Maluach will sit out the first day of the club's back-to-back set, and his next chance to play will come Monday against the Kings. The big man appeared in Friday's win over Washington, posting 14 points (5-13 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds, two blocks, one steal and one assist across 21 minutes.

Queen finished with 12 points (4-12 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-6 FT), 13 rebounds, one assist, one steal and one block across 27 minutes during Saturday's 94-81 Summer League loss to the Lakers.

Queen has now had back-to-back double-doubles during his first stint in the Summer League. The Maryland product crashed the glass Saturday, racking up a game-high 13 boards while also finishing as one of only three players for New Orleans to crack double digits in the scoring column.
