Hardy will not return to Monday's game against the Kings due to a right ankle sprain. The severity of the injury is unknown, but Hardy can be deemed day-to-day ahead of his next chance to play Wednesday in Milwaukee.

The Sacramento Kings on Monday secured their second-longest winning streak of the season. The run of victories extended to four after the Kings took care of the shorthanded Mavericks, whose season took another disastrous turn when Kyrie Irving’s left leg landed awkwardly on a drive to the basket late in the first quarter.
