Rotowire
Sabonis chipped in 22 points (10-16 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-6 FT), eight rebounds, seven assists and two blocks across 37 minutes during Sunday's 120-100 loss to the Warriors in Game 7 of the Western Conference Quarterfinals.
Sabonis scored effectively but his rebounding numbers were dwarfed by Kevon Looney's 21 boards. His fantasy total was aided by seven assists and two blocked shots, but the Kings' interior was solidly outmatched by Golden State's front line. Despite the disappointing final result, Sabonis ended the season as one of the league's most productive rebounders, trailing only Anthony Davis with 12.3 rebounds per game.
Sabonis posted 21 points (9-15 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 10 rebounds, four assists, one block and three steals across 36 minutes during Wednesday's 123-116 loss to the Warriors in Game 5 of the Western Conference Quarterfinals.
Sabonis was immense Wednesday, recording a double-double for the third time in the series and reaching the 20-point mark just for the second time. The star big man has struggled to show efficiency against the Warriors' frontcourt, but he's still averaging 17.2 points with 11.6 rebounds per game in the series. Game 6 will be played Friday at Chase Center.
