Kings center Maxime Raynaud injures patella in right knee and will be reevaluated in about two weeks
Sacramento Kings center Maxime Raynaud suffered a patellar subluxation in his right knee during a preseason game against the Golden State Warriors. The injury occurred when Raynaud collided with Stephen Curry while setting a screen for teammate Darius Acuff. Although the Kings are optimistic about Raynaud's recovery, they decided to reevaluate his condition in about two weeks following an MRI examination.
Raynaud, a 23-year-old French center selected 42nd overall in last year's draft, played for nine minutes, registering 10 points, five rebounds, an assist, and one blocked shot before leaving the game on crutches. Despite the setback, Kings coach Doug Christie expressed his concern for Raynaud, emphasizing the team's support for their teammate.
