Travis Outlaw scored a season-high 15 points in 18 minutes off the Kings' bench on Sunday, taking advantage of copious garbage time.

The bulk of his points came in the fourth quarter with Sacramento down by 20 points, and there's no reason to expect a repeat performance on Monday or Wednesday. John Salmons was the Kings second-highest scorer with 14 points, Cole Aldrich added 12 points, and Jimmer Fredette, Tyreke Evans and Isaiah Thomas added 10 apiece.

Travis Outlaw will get the start Wednesday with DeMarcus Cousins suspended for one game.

Outlaw hasn't started since Cousins' previous suspension a month ago. He remains unlikely to offer any sort of serious fantasy impact and owners in most leagues should ignore a player who has more than his fair share of DNP-CDs this season.

Travis Outlaw became an emergency starter for the Kings on Sunday, notching 11 points, three rebounds, two assists and two blocks in 26 minutes.

Outlaw started at PF because both DeMarcus Cousins and Thomas Robinson were suspended tonight, but he and Jason Thompson were wildly and predictably overmatched against Pau Gasol and Dwight Howard. Fantasy owners only need to know that Outlaw has racked up three DNP-CDs this season, and his previous season-high was 13 minutes.

Keith Smart believes Travis Outlaw will help the Kings on defense this season.

"I gave him some data and some things to work on this summer," Smart said. "And he came into camp and did a good job." The head coach wants to use Outlaw against "athletic power forwards and big small forwards," and with John Salmons (personal) away from the team, perhaps Outlaw could earn some rotation minutes. However, we're not fully buying what Smart is selling here.

Travis Outlaw is earning the praise of the Kings' coaching staff and could be in line to start at small forward this season.

This is somewhat surprising, although Tyreke Evans and John Salmons are still in the mix to win the job. As it stands right now, we're going to set our depth chart with Isaiah Thomas at point guard, Evans at SG, Outlaw at SF, Jason Thompson at PF and DeMarcus Cousins at C. That would make Marcus Thornton the sixth man, with guys like Aaron Brooks and Salmons coming off the bench.

Travis Outlaw broke his hand in the offseason and will wear a protective glove to start the year.

Outlaw isn't expected to see a ton of time in the rotation this year, and the only thing holding his roster spot is his salary. There is no reason to draft him in any format.

Travis Outlaw will start for injured Marcus Thornton (quad) on Thursday against the Lakers.

Outlaw hung 20 points on the Thunder on Tuesday, and is worth a look for the desperate (preferably in deeper formats). Terrence Williams is also playing tonight, and both guys hope to be the recipients of some garbage time love.
