Randolph is questionable for Tuesday's contest against the Magic due to a sore left knee, Jason Jones of The Sacramento Bee reports.
EDGE Analysis
Randolph caught a DNP-Coach's Decision Monday against Charlotte, so it's unclear when he picked up the knee injury. Regardless, considering coach Dave Joerger has noted that he will be resting his veterans more, it would not be shocking to see Randolph sit out Tuesday's contest, especially if Skal Labissiere (shoulder) -- who is probable -- ends up being cleared to play. If Labissiere is unexpectedly ruled out, Randolph may have a higher chance of seeing the floor due to lack of options at the position.

Randolph is not in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Hornets, Stephanie Ready of Fox Sports Southeast reports.
EDGE Analysis
Randolph has started the last two games for the Kings, but Sacramento is set to go with Bogdan Bogdanovic, Kosta Koufos and Willie Cauley-Stein in the frontcourt Monday. While an official announcement hasn't been provided, this likely means Randolph will be getting the night off for rest, as coach Dave Joerger has been alternating rest nights for his veterans over the last few weeks. For that reason, fantasy owners will likely want to avoid Randolph for Monday's slate of games.

Randolph will start at power forward in Wednesday's game against the Jazz, Jason Jones of The Sacramento Bee reports.
EDGE Analysis
Randolph was a surprise scratch in the Kings' last game as the team elected to rest the veteran forward. Though coach Dave Joerger decided to let the younger players on the team see increased workloads, Randolph could see some added minutes in Wednesday's game while Skal Labissiere (shoulder) sits out.

Randolph's role will be reduced for the remainder of the season to allow younger players more time on the court to develop, James Ham of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
EDGE Analysis
This announcement spells bad news for Randolph's fantasy value since coach Dave Joerger has decided to have his veterans occasionally sit out entire games in the remainder of the season ahead. Randolph will still have viability in formats with daily lineup options, but rostering Randolph in weekly formats will be frustrating to say the least. Skal Labissiere and JaKarr Sampson seem like the top options to see more playing time when Randolph is asked to take the night off.

Randolph will move to a bench role for Monday's matchup with the Thunder, Kings sideline reporter Kayte Christensen reports.
EDGE Analysis
Randolph and fellow veteran George Hill are shifting to the bench, with Bogdan Bogdanovic and Skal Labissiere set to pick up the start in their respective places. It's unclear if this is an attempt to get the older players some extra rest or if it's matchup based, though it certainly makes using Randolph and Hill in Thursday's DFS slate a bit more risky. This is likely just a one-game experiment and there's a good chance Randolph is back in the top unit during the Kings' next contest.

Randolph offered 16 points (7-15 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, one assist and one steal across 27 minutes in Thursday's 121-115 loss to the Clippers.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran big man bounced back from a pair of rough shooting performances to post his first double-digit scoring effort since Jan. 2. Randolph had been enduring some struggles from the field dating back to late December, as he'd shot between 16.7 and 33.3 percent in five of the previous seven games. However, the 36-year-old continues to hit double digits in the scoring column in the majority of contests due to the volume of shots he often puts up, and his above-average work on the boards serves as a strong complement to his offensive contributions.

Randolph (face) has been cleared to play in Monday's game against the Spurs, Jason Jones of the Sacramento Bee reports.
EDGE Analysis
Randolph had to sit out Saturday's tilt with the Nuggets following recent oral surgery, but will now rejoin the lineup after just a one-game layoff. Look for Randolph to rejoin the starting lineup as usual and his return should mean less minutes for the likes of Skal Labissiere and Kosta Koufos. Compared to the beginning of the season, Randolph has seen a much smaller role of late and has averaged just 21.8 minutes over the last five games he was active.

Randolph (mouth) is probable to play in Monday's game against the Spurs, Sean Cunningham of ABC 10 Sacramento reports.
EDGE Analysis
Randolph was forced to miss Saturday's game against the Nuggets after undergoing an oral procedure, but it looks like his absence won't extend beyond one game. With Randolph expected to return, Willie Cauley-Stein will likely return to the bench after getting a spot start against Denver.

Randolph has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Nuggets after undergoing an oral procedure, Sean Cunningham of ABC 10 Sacramento reports.
EDGE Analysis
This is the first we've heard of the oral issue, and specifics remain unclear, but it will force Randolph to miss his first game of 2018. With Randolph unavailable, look for Willie Cauley-Stein, Skal Labissiere and Kosta Koufos to benefit from increased opportunities. Consider him tentatively questionable for the team's next game, which comes Monday against the Spurs.

Randolph accounted for 24 points (11-18 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and 10 rebounds across 25 minutes in Tuesday's 131-111 loss to the Hornets.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran big man maximized his minutes, with his point total leading the Kings on the night. It was Randolph's best haul since he'd poured in 27 against the Sixers on Dec. 19, while his double-digit rebound tally was his first in the last 10 contests. Randolph continues to enjoy heavy usage as one of the elder statesmen on a rebuilding squad, keeping him viable as a source of scoring and rebounding in all formats.
