The Sacramento Kings will begin the season without forward Keegan Murray, who is set to undergo surgery for a torn ulnar collateral ligament in his left thumb, with a potential return in four-to-six weeks. Murray, who averaged 12.4 points and 6.7 rebounds last season, is entering the final year of his contract and could face restricted free agency next summer, while rookie Maxime Raynaud may replace him in the starting lineup.
