Monk produced 23 points (8-15 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), one rebound, four assists, one block and one steal in 30 minutes during Sunday's 123-100 win over the Wizards.
Monk filled the stat sheet admirably and posted a solid stat line across the board, ending as one of three players who reached the 20-point plateau in an easy win for the Kings. Monk has been excellent as a starter and is putting up solid numbers as a reliable scoring weapon, hitting the 20-point mark in all but one of his previous eight outings, averaging 23.6 points per game in that span.

Kings' Malik Monk: Goes for 26 points
Monk had 26 points (10-19 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 4-5 FT), three rebounds, nine assists and one steal across 37 minutes during Thursday's 132-127 victory over the Rockets.
Monk finished just one assist away from recording a double-double. The former Kentucky star continues to thrive in a starting role while settling as another reliable scoring weapon alongside the Big Three of De'Aaron Fox, DeMar DeRozan and Domantas Sabonis. Monk has scored at least 20 points in all but one of his previous seven contests, averaging 23.7 points per game and shooting 45 percent from the floor in that span.

Kings' Malik Monk: Ruled out Tuesday
Monk (groin) will not play Tuesday against the Bucks, Chris Biderman of The Sacramento Bee reports.
Monk was previously carrying a questionable tag which suggests that he's day-to-day, but he will sit out his first game since Nov. 24. His next chance to play will be Thursday against the Rockets, and fantasy managers can consider him questionable for that contest. As for Tuesday, the Kings could turn to Keon Ellis and Kevin Huerter to step into larger roles.

Kings' Malik Monk: Iffy for Tuesday
Monk (groin) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Bucks.
Monk is in danger of missing his first contest since Nov. 24 due to right groin soreness. The 26-year-old has carved out a significant role in the starting five this season, and if he's sidelined, Keon Ellis and Kevin Huerter are candidates for increased roles. Over his last five outings, Monk has averaged 24.0 points, 8.2 assists, 4.2 rebounds and 2.0 steals in 37.0 minutes per contest.

Kings' Malik Monk: Flirts with triple-double in win
Monk closed Sunday's 124-119 win over the Bulls with 18 points (7-18 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 3-3 FT), eight rebounds, nine assists and two steals across 37 minutes.
Monk did a little bit of everything for Sacramento in the starting lineup Sunday, leading all players in assists and steals while finishing as one of four players with 15 or more points and coming up one dime and two rebounds shy of a triple-double. Monk posted his sixth game of the season with at least 15 points, five rebounds and five assists while securing at least 18 points or a sixth straight outing.

Kings' Malik Monk: Continues to fill in admirably
Monk logged 22 points (9-24 FG, 3-11 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, eight assists, one block and one steal over 37 minutes during Friday's 114-97 win over the Celtics.
Operating as Sacramento's point guard for the injured De'Aaron Fox (glute) for a third straight contest, Monk continued to fill in admirably with 22 points and eight assists to go with a full stat line Friday. The streaky Monk appears to be on a heater at the moment, as the 26-year-old is averaging 22.3 points, 7.3 assists, 4.0 rebounds, 1.4 steals and 2.7 threes across his last seven contests. If Fox is unable to suit up for the Kings on Sunday against the Bulls, Monk would figure to continue handling an expanded role as one of the team's top playmakers alongside Domantas Sabonis and DeMar DeRozan.

Kings' Malik Monk: Another strong showing
Monk provided 23 points (8-25 FG, 1-9 3Pt, 6-7 FT), five rebounds, six assists and two steals over 49 minutes during Monday's 123-118 double-overtime win over the Heat.
Monk didn't have his best shooting line after needing 25 shots to score 23 points, though he still posted an impressive line in general. He's been playing at a high level of late and has reached the 20-point mark in five of his last six outings. Monk should continue to have elevated usage as long as De'Aaron Fox (hip) remains sidelined.

Kings' Malik Monk: Shines with 26/12 double-double
Monk produced 26 points (9-14 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds, 12 assists, one block and four steals in 29 minutes during Sunday's 129-99 victory over Golden State.
Monk's brilliant play continued with a team-high 26 points. Although De'Aaron Fox's (hip) absence was a contributing factor, Monk's totals have been excellent, independent of Sacramento's injury report. Promoting Monk has proven to be a winning formula, and fantasy managers should expect the production to continue. He's enjoyed a great start to January, averaging 25.7 points, 8.0 assists, 2.3 rebounds and 2.0 steals over three games.

Kings' Malik Monk: Delivers big line in win
Monk registered 31 points (11-20 FG, 6-12 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds, six assists and one steal in 33 minutes during Friday's 138-133 victory over the Grizzlies.
Promoting Monk to the first unit is the shrewdest move the Kings have made this season. After toiling as the sixth man for two seasons and in reserve roles elsewhere, Monk is finally getting a chance to hold down a full-time job as a starter. He's solidly outperforming the competition below him on the depth chart, and this scenario doesn't look like it will change anytime soon. He'll have ample opportunity to keep posting prolific totals despite an abundance of talent on the roster.

Kings' Malik Monk: Struggles with three-point shot
Monk closed with 20 points (5-12 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 10-10 FT), two rebounds, six assists and one steal across 32 minutes during Wednesday's 113-107 win over the 76ers.
Monk delivered an impressive stat line and reached the 20-point mark for the second time over his last three games. Even though the fact that he went 0-for-5 from beyond the arc might stand out, the truth is that Monk has been struggling with his shot since being promoted to a starting role on Dec. 1. During that 14-game span, he's averaging 16.7 points per game but is only shooting a subpar 32.7 percent from three-point range. Furthermore, his 33.9 percent from deep this season would be his lowest mark of the last five seasons if he doesn't improve it in the coming months.

Kings' Malik Monk: Puts together diverse line in win
Monk logged 14 points (4-14 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 5-6 FT), seven rebounds, six assists and one steal in 36 minutes during Monday's 110-100 win over the Mavericks.
It's taken a few years for Monk to find his way back into a starting lineup, but it looks like he's now the preferred option after working with the second unit during his first two seasons with the Kings. Monk's ability to put up solid totals in a reserve role was never in doubt, but the addition of DeMar DeRozan and Kevin Huerter's streaky play has led to a permanent spot for Monk with the first unit. Monk and DeRozan seem to complement each other well, and the Kentucky product's ability to impact multiple categories is a great bonus for the squad.

Kings' Malik Monk: Impactful two-way performance
Monk amassed 25 points (9-19 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six rebounds, 10 assists, three blocks and one steal in 34 minutes during Monday's 130-129 loss to the Nuggets.
Monk has scored at least 20 points in three of his last five starts, but he's been making a difference due to his contributions in other categories. He's showing he's not just a one-dimensional scorer, posting a season-high mark in blocks and dishing out double-digit dimes for the second time in 2024-25. Monk has experienced an uptick in value, and the numbers back him up. He's averaging 18.1 points, 4.4 rebounds, 7.3 assists and a combined 1.4 steals-plus-blocks in seven starts this season.

Kings' Malik Monk: Shooting woes in win Thursday
Monk registered five points (2-11 FG, 1-5 3Pt), nine assists, four rebounds, one block and one steal over 34 minutes during Thursday's 111-109 win over New Orleans.
Monk struggled to find his rhythm from the field Thursday as he tied his season-low mark in scoring. Despite shooting woes, the guard still racked up a team-high nine assists. The 26-year-old has successfully made the jump to the starting five, and in his last six outings, he has averaged 17.0 points, 6.8 assists and 4.2 rebounds while shooting 40.4 percent from deep across 33.2 minutes per game.

Kings' Malik Monk: Scores 23 points Thursday
Monk had 23 points (7-16 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 5-5 FT), one rebound and five assists over 32 minutes during Thursday's 115-110 loss to Memphis.
Monk continues to produce in a starting role for the Kings, and there's no question Sacramento is riding his hot hand. This was his fifth straight game with at least 15 points, scoring over 20 thrice while shooting an impressive 51.9 percent from the field in that span. Monk's numbers are likely to regress at some point, particularly in the efficiency department. Still, he's been showing he's worth rostering in most formats, especially now that he holds a starting role.

Kings' Malik Monk: Racks up double-double in win
Monk ended with 17 points (5-10 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds, 12 assists and one steal in 35 minutes during Tuesday's 120-111 victory over the Rockets.
The Kings once again opted to start Monk over Keon Ellis, who has struggled to stay consistent. Monk has responded with two excellent games, and although Kevin Huerter is back in action, Monk will remain the starting shooting guard, per coach Mike Brown. Monk has been the first man off the bench for the Kings frequently over his three-year tenure with the team, and he's invaluable as an offensive spark. He may return to that role eventually, but he is currently strutting his stuff as a starter.
