Gay (personal) has not arrived at the Kings' arena as of two hours prior to game time, but head coach George Karl is still hopeful he will play in Wednesday's season opener, James Ham of CSN California reports.
Analysis:
Gay was considered a near-lock to play Wednesday, but with him still absent as game time approaches, the likelihood of him sitting out has increased. Another update on his status will come when the Kings ultimately decide whether or not he will play Wednesday night.
