Koufos will start at power forward in Monday's matchup with the Bucks, Jason Jones of the Sacramento Bee reports.

Analysis:

Koufos will get the starting nod over Omri Casspi in place of the injured DeMarcus Cousins (ankle). Though he'll give the Kings some more heft to counter the frontcourt of Greg Monroe and Jabari Parker, Koufos averaged just 15.7 minutes in January, so coach George Karl may not be willing to lean heavily on him.
