Koufos will start in Wednesday's game against the Timberwolves, Kings' radio broadcaster Gary Gerould reports.
Analysis:
Koufos will be getting the start in place of DeMarcus Cousins (knee). Koufos has averaged just 13.1 minutes per game so far this month but is likely to see a minutes increase while he's in the starting lineup. In his last game over 20 minutes, two weeks ago against the Magic, he scored 19 points and grabbed four rebounds. Koufos is very likely to return to the bench as soon as Cousins returns to action.
