Knee warning for Maxime Raine
Russell Westbrook benefits from the screen of Maxime Raynaud to open the way to the basket and become the most prolific point guard in history. A screen that cost the French dearly, who fell to the ground, hit in the knee.
With the support of the Kings medical staff, he had to return to the locker room. The Frenchman could not play the last four minutes of the match that Sacramento lost (129-102) who suffered a fourth consecutive defeat.
after the meeting, Doug Christie wanted to be believable on his rookie’s health: “After the game he smiled, so that’s always a good sign, but I always keep my fingers crossed for the young players. He plays hard and with heart. When you see things like this, you’re never comfortable, so I’m keeping my fingers crossed.”
Although Maxime Renault will have tests during the day on Saturday, the Frenchman revealed he thinks he has avoided a serious knee injury. “It’ll be alright,” assures Maxim Raynaud. “It was scary, but I think it’s just an uncomfortable feeling that you’re not used to.”
In the decline of the Kings, who occupy the fourteenth place in the West with 8 wins and 27 losses, Maxime Reynaud appears as one of the rare satisfactions. Selected 42nd overall in the 2025 draft, the former Stanford standout could have used the layoff Domantas Sabonis, a victim of a torn meniscusand a particularly poor interior sector in Sacramento to break into Doug Christie’s starting five.
After 27 games, he is averaging 10.5 points and 6.3 rebounds in just under 23 minutes of play.
