Richaun Holmes Cleared to Play Wednesday

Sacramento Kings Center Richaun Holmes Has Been Cleared to Play against the New Orleans Pelicans, Head Coach Mike Brown Announced Monday

Holmes, who has missed the last five games with a left foot injury, is expected to start against the Pelicans. The 29-year-old is averaging 10.4 points, 9.8 rebounds, and 1.5 blocks per game this season.

The Kings are 2-3 without Holmes in the lineup. They have struggled to rebound the ball without him, allowing opponents to average 14.4 more rebounds per game.

Holmes' return is a major boost for the Kings, who are currently in 10th place in the Western Conference. They are just one game behind the New Orleans Pelicans for the final play-in spot.

Holmes' Injury History

Holmes has a history of foot injuries. He missed 23 games last season with a left foot sprain.

The Kings are hoping that Holmes can stay healthy for the rest of the season. He is a key part of their team, and they need him to be on the court in order to make a playoff push.

Kings Upcoming Schedule

The Kings have a tough schedule coming up. They play the New Orleans Pelicans, Denver Nuggets, and Memphis Grizzlies in their next three games.

The Kings will need to play well if they want to make a playoff push. They have a lot of talent, but they need to stay healthy and play together as a team.
