Lyles signed a contract with Real Madrid on Thursday, NBA reporter Marc Stein reports.

EDGE Analysis

Lyles spent his third straight season with the Kings during the 2024-25 campaign, averaging 6.5 points, 4.6 rebounds and 1.2 assists in 69 appearances. He's since elected to try his hand overseas, where he'll suit up for Real Madrid of the EuroLeague and should immediately take on a significant role.

Lyles notched five points (2-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt), six rebounds and one assist in 18 minutes during Wednesday's 120-106 Play-In Game loss to the Mavericks.

EDGE Analysis

Lyles' 2024-25 regular-season campaign was a bit of a letdown compared to previous years. He appeared in 69 games, but struggled with his shot, averaging just 6.5 points, 4.6 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 0.6 steals and 1.2 three-pointers in 19.6 minutes. Lyles is heading for unrestricted free agency this summer.

Lyles is not in the Kings' starting lineup against the Clippers on Friday, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Lyles has started in the Kings' last three games and has averaged 10.3 points, 7.7 rebounds and 2.0 assists across 38.7 minutes over that span. The 2015 first-round pick will retreat to the bench for Friday's contest due to Keegan Murray returning from a back injury.

Lyles amassed 17 points (6-9 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 3-3 FT), nine rebounds and four assists across 38 minutes during Wednesday's 124-116 loss to the Nuggets.

EDGE Analysis

Lyles made his third straight start Wednesday due to Keegan Murray (back) being out and was one rebound shy of his second double-double of the season. Across Lyles' five starts this season, he has averaged 12.0 points, 7.2 rebounds and 2.2 assists in 37.8 minutes.

Lyles registered seven points (3-8 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 0-2 FT), six rebounds, one assist and one block over 38 minutes during Monday's 127-117 win over the Pistons.

EDGE Analysis

With Keegan Murray (back) out for a second straight contest, Lyles saw another massive workload for the Kings. However, he hasn't been very productive, posting averages of 7.0 points, 7.0 rebounds, 1.0 assists, 1.0 steals and 1.0 three-pointers in 39.0 minutes over his last two outings. With three games remaining this season, Lyles is only on the radar in deeper fantasy formats.

Lyles will be in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Cavaliers.

EDGE Analysis

Lyles will be in the starting lineup for Sacramento for a third time this season. In his two previous starts for the Kings, the veteran big man averaged 14.5 points, 6.5 rebounds and 2.5 assists per game, shooting 50.0 percent from the field and 57.1 percent from beyond the arc.

Lyles supplied 22 points (6-11 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 6-6 FT), six rebounds, three assists and one block over 24 minutes during Thursday's 128-116 loss to Chicago.

EDGE Analysis

Lyles led the second unit with a season high in points, marking his highest-scoring outing since Jan. 23, 2023. The big man has been serving as the club's primary backup center due to Domantas Sabonis (ankle) being sidelined, though Lyles has played more minutes than Jonas Valanciunas in each of his last four appearances off the bench. In that four-game span, Lyles has averaged 12.8 points, 6.8 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.0 steals across 24.0 minutes per contest.

Lyles notched 13 points (5-9 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, five assists and one steal across 30 minutes during Wednesday's 123-119 win over the Cavaliers.

EDGE Analysis

Lyles is suddenly trending up and is looking to take advantage of the absence of Domantas Sabonis (ankle). Over his last three outings, Lyles has produced low-end streaming value with averages of 9.7 points, 7.3 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.0 three-pointers on 57.9 percent shooting from the field.

Lyles (back) is available for Monday's game against the Grizzlies, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

EDGE Analysis

Lyles will fight off a back injury to share the frontcourt minutes off the bench with Jonas Valanciunas. Across his last seven outings, Lyles has averaged 5.7 points, 4.7 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 0.6 steals in 17.0 minutes.

Lyles (back) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Grizzlies.

EDGE Analysis

Lyles was unable to play in Friday's loss to the Suns due to lower-back soreness, but he has a chance to return Monday. Jake LaRavia would be in line for increased minutes off the bench if Lyles is not cleared to return Monday.
