Guard Doug Christie is expected to miss most of training camp with the Sacramento Kings while recovering from plantar fasciitis in his left foot.

Christie, a 13-year veteran who started every game for the Kings last season, underwent treatment on his foot Friday to relieve pain that bothered him for much of last season. He will be out of action for at least four weeks while recovering, but the team expects him to be healthy for the regular season.

A defensive standout, Christie averaged 10.1 points, 4.2 assists and 4.0 rebounds last season.
