One of the best rebounders in the league, Sabonis has an incredibly high fantasy floor. However, his ceiling took a hit last season because his assists dropped to 6.0 per game, his lowest mark since he was a Pacer. He was still efficient, posting career highs from the line (75.4) and beyond the arc (41.7) while shooting at least 59 percent from the field for a third straight campaign. He got to the charity stripe only 4.1 times per game, his fewest since 2018-19, but Sabonis' 2.2 three-point attempts per game were his most in a Kings' uniform. The mid-season trade of De'Aaron Fox to the Spurs shook up the timeline, but it appears Sacramento will run it back with the same starting lineup they finished 2024-25 - Sabonis, Malik Monk, Zach LaVine, DeMar DeRozan and Keegan Murray. However, they made changes to their depth, swapping Jonas Valanciunas for Dario Saric, while signing Dennis Schroder in free agency. The Kings also drafted Nique Clifford and Maxime Raynaud. Regardless, none of the changes should impact Sabonis' bottom line. Even if the Kings fall out of contention, the talented big man's ability to rack up double-doubles on efficient shooting makes him a valuable fantasy asset. However, with so many Iso scorers around him now, it'll be difficult for Sabonis to match his lofty assist totals from his first two years in Sacramento.
