The Sacramento Kings have formally ruled rookie forward Keegan Murray for the season opener Wednesday against the Portland Trail Blazers due to health and safety protocols. Murray was one of the stars of NBA Summer League and is expected to be a contender for Rookie of the Year. He's listed at +550 to win the honor on DraftKings Sportsbook, second only to Orlando Magic rookie Paolo Banchero.
Kevin Huerter (left ankle soreness) is listed as questionable for tomorrow's season opener.
Keegan Murray (health & safety protocols) will not play.
