Iffy for Tuesday
Hayes is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Hornets due to left foot soreness.
Analyse
Hayes left Sunday's win over the Nets early with what was initially described as a left toe injury, though it has since been labeled as foot soreness. With Russell Westbrook (foot) already ruled out for Tuesday, the Kings may need to lean on Devin Carter at point guard.

Won't return Sunday
Hayes won't return to Sunday's game against the Nets due to a toe injury on his left foot, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports. He'll finish with two points (1-4 FG), four rebounds and one assist across 12 minutes.
Analyse
With Russell Westbrook (foot) sidelined, Hayes got the starting nod Sunday. However, he picked up a toe injury in the first half and won't return during the second. Malik Monk and Devin Carter will likely help pick up the slack in the backcourt the rest of the way. Hayes' next chance to play will come Tuesday in Charlotte.
