Tyreke Evans had 21 points, nine rebounds and six assists on Saturday, sinking 9-of-15 FGs and 3-of-3 FTs in a heartbreaking loss to the visiting Lakers.

Sleep Train Arena was buzzing with a sell-out crowd all night, and Tyreke and the Kings fought hard, but they were done in by some questionable decisions down the stretch. Foremost among them were a late one-on-three drive by Tyreke which led to a turnover, the Kings final three shots all being 3-pointers from DeMarcus Cousins, and (if you sense a lack of offensive leadership) Keith Smart's decision to bench Isaiah Thomas for all but the final 24 seconds of the fourth quarter.

Tyreke Evans returned to action on Wednesday despite a mysterious stomach ailment, that is not being called an illness.

He hit 4-of-12 shots for 12 points, five dimes and a steal in 34 minutes, and owners have to hope this is the last we hear of the stomach issue. The fact he played so much tonight leads us to believe he'll be good to go for his next game on Thursday at Phoenix.

Tests on Tyreke Evans' stomach came back normal and he is questionable to play Wednesday against the Warriors.

Evans was throwing up at halftime of Sunday's game against the Sixers and the team first suspected he was dealing with a flu bug, although that's obviously not the case now. Evans will warm up and see how he feels pregame before the Kings determine his status. If Evans can't play against the Warriors, Marcus Thornton would see a major boost in his minutes.
