Wraps up decent rookie campaign
Cardwell accumulated six points (3-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt), eight rebounds, one block and one steal over 21 minutes during Sunday's 122-110 loss to Portland.
ANALYSIS
Though it was fellow rookie Maxime Raynaud who was more productive for the Kings this year, Cardwell held his own in a backup role and will likely be pushing for a rotation spot in the frontcourt in 2026-27. Through 44 contests, Cardwell averaged 5.4 points, 7.5 rebounds and 1.5 blocks in 20.6 minutes per contest while shooting 58.7 percent from the floor.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Christie gives him accolades
Kings head coach Doug Christie had strong praise for Cardwell, who recently earned a standard contract from the team, Jason Anderson of the Sacramento Bee reports.
ANALYSIS
"He earned that through really, really hard work with a lot of good development down in the G League and here with our coaches," Christie said. "The kid has done a hell of a job. I don't know that proud is the word because it goes beyond that. I'm proud of him and proud for him because he did the work. Kudos to him because that doesn't happen often and he affects winning." With the Kings looking towards the future and Domantas Sabonis battling some nagging injuries, Cardwell could see an expanded role down the stretch.
