Injuries sideline Kings' three-guard scheme

"Four months ago, there was a lot of talk about the Kings using Tyreke Evans, Kevin Martin and Beno Udrih together.

The setup made sense. Put the rookie, Evans, on the floor with two experienced guards who could also relieve him of having to always initiate the offense.

But when Martin was lost to injury after five games, that left Evans and Udrih working often as a tandem.

Udrih flourished, shooting better than 50 percent from the floor and helping the Kings get off to a surprisingly good start.

Martin's return to the lineup last month meant Udrih would have to adjust because his playing time was likely to decrease.

What's complicating matters is the fact Udrih is playing with a bad right foot.

Evans is expected to play tonight after missing Monday's overtime loss at Denver with a bruised left hip and sore right ankle."
