"Sacramento Kings center Domantas Sabonis is expected to miss four to five more weeks as he continues to recover from a partial meniscus tear in his left knee, the team announced Friday. A three-time All-Star, Sabonis has not played since Nov. 16, a span of 13 games in which the Kings have gone 3-10. He initially sat out Nov. 19 with what the team deemed left knee soreness, but further testing revealed the tear."
"It has been an injury-riddled season for Sabonis, who missed the regular-season opener after a hamstring strain in the preseason, then sat out two games in early November with a rib issue. He previously had been a pillar of durability in Sacramento, playing 79, 82 and 70 games the past three seasons. Sabonis was averaging 17.2 points and 12.3 rebounds per game in 11 contests this season before getting hurt. He led the league in rebounding the past three seasons."
