Kings' Arron Afflalo: Will not play Tuesday

Afflalo is dealing with a strained glute and won't play in Tuesday's preseason finale versus the Clippers, James Ham of CSN Bay Area reports.

Analysis:

Afflalo is in line to open the season as the Kings' starting shooting guard, and missing out on the final preseason game won't change his standing on the depth chart. Ben McLemore is expected to absorb most of the minutes at the position Tuesday, but Afflalo should be fully recovered and ready to go for the regular-season opener Oct. 26 against the Suns.
