Richaun Holmes returns to practice, still weeks away from Kings return !!!!!

SACRAMENTO -- There was a surprise guest at Sacramento Kings' shootaround Wednesday morning.

Center Richaun Holmes, who is out of action with a right shoulder joint injury for at least the next 2-3 weeks, came out on the floor and started putting in work with the training staff.

Holmes originally injured his shoulder in the Kings' Jan. 6 win over the Golden State Warriors and was diagnosed with a shoulder strain. An MRI later revealed a more serious setback.

Sacramento's starting center began the session using his left hand to flip up shots around the rim. After going through a set with his left, he switched to his injured right side and started knocking down shot after shot.

The Dallas Mavericks (25-15) take on the Sacramento Kings (15-25) at Golden 1 Center.
