Sacramento Kings center Domantas Sabonis suffered multiple injuries during a 132-122 win over the Memphis Grizzlies on Monday, and they will sideline him once again.

Sabonis will miss at least 10 days due to a right ankle sprain, according to ESPN's Shams Charania.

The NBA's leading rebounder had just returned last week after sitting out six games with a hamstring injury, but now he'll be forced to miss more time. The Kings have struggled without him, going 3-6 in his absence.

The injury occurred early in the third quarter when Sabonis rolled his ankle while driving to the basket. He had to be helped off the court and did not return.

Earlier in the game, he also took a head-to-head hit from Memphis guard Luke Kennard, requiring four stitches above his eye.

Throughout the night, Sabonis appeared to struggle with discomfort in his left hamstring -- the same injury that had previously sidelined him for nearly two weeks.

This season, Sabonis is averaging 19.2 points, 13.9 rebounds, and 6.2 assists per game. The Kings hold a 34-33 record and currently rank ninth in the Western Conference.
