The Kings' fears for Maxime Raynaud eased when his MRI showed a right patellar subluxation (a partial kneecap dislocation); he'll be re-evaluated in two weeks and miss the start of the season. Tyrese Haliburton, who tweaked his right ankle in his preseason debut, was a full participant in Monday's practice; it's unclear if he plays Tuesday in Oklahoma City. Kristaps Porziņģis rejoins the Warriors on Tuesday after two weeks away with an undisclosed health issue.

Fantasy angleRaynaud should miss roughly the first week of the season; Haliburton's regular-season availability doesn't look in doubt.
