Lakhin has re-signed with Sacramento on a non-guaranteed training camp contract, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.
The Kings previously waived Lakhin but have brought him back amid injuries to several members of their frontcourt. The 25-year-old center will have another opportunity to make an impression while competing for Sacramento's remaining two-way roster spot. His immediate path to playing time could depend on how quickly the team's injured big men return to action.

Thunder's Viktor Lakhin: Doesn't see floor
Rotowire
Lakhin (foot) didn't see the floor in Thursday's 90-81 Summer League win over the Nets.
Lakhin was diagnosed with a torn tendon in his left foot back in early May. He was considered a possible second-rounder in the 2025 NBA Draft before this news. Lakhin was given a three-month timetable, and while it's unclear if he'll be involved in live action during the Summer League, it seems likely that the Thunder are looking to consider him as a possible candidate for a two-way deal.
