Brook Lopez Brook Lopez records 20/8/1 line, two blocked shots
Wed, Nov 4, 2026, 7:37 PM
Brook Lopez amassed 20 points (8-of-11 FGs, 2-of-5 FTs), eight rebounds, one assist, two blocks and two three-pointers in Wednesday's loss to the Heat.
Analysis: After playing 22 minutes in his first start of the season on Monday, Lopez played 35 in Wednesday's overtime thriller. Given his production in those two starts and Isaiah Jackson's inability to avoid silly fouls, Lopez may have the starting center job for the foreseeable future. Jackson, who has committed at least four fouls in six of his eight games, played 13 minutes against the Heat and finished with two points, four rebounds, two assists and one steal. |
Darius Garland Darius Garland scores team-high 26 points vs. MIA
Wed, Nov 4, 2026, 7:37 PM
Darius Garland recorded 26 points (10-of-14 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), one rebound, seven assists and four three-pointers in Wednesday's loss to the Heat.
Analysis: By now, it's known that category-league managers rostering Garland will likely have to punt turnovers. He racked up six turnovers against the Heat, but the Clippers' guard had his best shooting night this season. In addition to making 10 of 14 shots from the field, he recorded seven assists, making for a decent night at the office. |
Rui Hachimura Rui Hachimura scores 21 points, grabs nine boards
Wed, Nov 4, 2026, 7:37 PM
Rui Hachimura accumulated 21 points (7-of-18 FGs, 6-of-7 FTs), nine rebounds, seven assists, one steal and one three-pointer in Wednesday's loss to the Heat.
Analysis: Hachimura has gotten off to a relatively slow start with the Clippers, shooting 37.3 percent from the field and 68.4 percent from the foul line. Add inconsistent production in assists, steals and blocks, and rostering Hachimura in some 10-team leagues isn't worth discussing. He had a productive night against the Heat, with the seven assists being more than double his total entering the night (three). For Hachimura to be someone you can roster in shallow leagues after the Clippers get guys like Brandon Ingram and Bradley Beal back, nights like Wednesday have to become the norm. |
Derrick Jones Jr. LAC starts Garland, Dunn, Jones, Hachimura, Lopez
Wed, Nov 4, 2026, 2:55 PM
Tomer Azarly
Darius Garland, Kris Dunn, Derrick Jones Jr., Rui Hachimura and Brook Lopez will start Wednesday's game against the Heat.
Analysis: Jones and Hachimura are available after missing Monday's loss to the Raptors. As a result, Gradey Dick and Kobe Sanders will come off the bench. |
Isaiah Jackson Isaiah Jackson (groin) upgraded to available
Wed, Nov 4, 2026, 2:53 PM
Tomer Azarly
Isaiah Jackson (groin) is available for Wednesday's game against the Heat.
Analysis: Jackson is good to go after initially being questionable for Wednesday's game. He's recently come off the bench, with Brook Lopez moving into the starting lineup. That should remain the case against the Heat. |

Isaiah Jackson Isaiah Jackson (groin) now questionable vs. Miami
Wed, Nov 4, 2026, 9:07 AM
Law Murray
Isaiah Jackson (groin) is questionable to play against the Heat on Wednesday.
Analysis: Jackson is a late addition to the injury report. If he doesn't suit up, Brook Lopez will remain in the starting unit, though that could happen even if Jackson plays. Baba Miller could fill out the backup center minutes if Jackson is unavailable. |

Derrick Jones Jr. Derrick Jones Jr. (knee) absent from injury report
Tue, Nov 3, 2026, 1:53 PM
NBA Injury Report
Derrick Jones Jr. (knee) is not on the injury report for Wednesday's game against the Heat.
Analysis: Jones' return after a one-game absence means that Gradey Dick will come off the bench after starting Monday's loss to the Raptors. |
|
Rui Hachimura Rui Hachimura (quad) absent from injury report
Tue, Nov 3, 2026, 1:51 PM
NBA Injury Report
Rui Hachimura (quad) is not on the injury report for Wednesday's game against the Heat.
Analysis: Hachimura did not play in Monday's loss to the Raptors, as Kobe Sanders moved into the starting lineup and scored a career-high 26 points. Sanders will return to the bench, which significantly limits his fantasy value. |

Darius Garland Darius Garland records eight assists, seven TOs
Mon, Nov 2, 2026, 7:33 PM
Darius Garland accumulated 16 points (5-of-14 FGs, 5-of-6 FTs), four rebounds, eight assists and one three-pointer in Monday's loss to the Raptors.
Analysis: Garland's efficiency remains an issue for fantasy managers. In addition to the poor shooting, he committed seven turnovers against the Raptors. Four of those turnovers occurred in the fourth quarter, as the Clippers were outscored 47-27 and surrendered a 13-point lead. Some may view this as a good âbuy lowâ opportunity, but Garland has committed at least five turnovers in five of the Clippers' first seven games. |
Max Strus Max Strus (foot) plays 23 minutes in LAC debut
Mon, Nov 2, 2026, 7:33 PM
Max Strus (foot) posted 11 points (3-of-10 FGs, 2-of-3 FTs), four rebounds, six assists, one steal and three three-pointers in Monday's loss to the Raptors.
Analysis: Nearly a month after injuring his foot during a preseason game, Strus made his Clippers debut on Monday. Unsurprisingly, he was a bit rusty offensively, but Strus made contributions on both ends of the floor. He played 23 minutes, a number that will increase as any restrictions are lifted. Fantasy managers in 12-team leagues can hold off on adding Strus for now, but he may be worth picking up soon. |

Isaiah Jackson Isaiah Jackson posts 19/8/2 stat line vs. Toronto
Mon, Nov 2, 2026, 7:33 PM
Isaiah Jackson finished Monday's loss to the Raptors with 19 points (9-of-11 FGs), eight rebounds, two assists and one three-pointer.
Analysis: Inconsistent as a starter in the Clippers' first six games, Jackson was moved to the bench on Monday. The decision could have been matchup-based, but Clippers head coach Tyronn Lue stuck with Brook Lopez (12/6/1/1/1 with one three-pointer) as the starting center after Toronto ruled out Jakob Poeltl. Jackson didn't let the demotion get him down, as he recorded a season-high point total and matched his previous high in rebounds. Simply put, even if Jackson continues to come off the bench, those rostering him shouldn't throw in the towel. |
Gradey Dick LAC starts Garland, Gradey, Dunn, Sanders, Lopez
Mon, Nov 2, 2026, 2:24 PM
Joey Linn
Darius Garland, Gradey Dick, Kris Dunn, Kobe Sanders and Brook Lopez will start Monday's game against the Raptors.
Analysis: The Clippers are down three starters for Monday's game, with Rui Hachimura, Derrick Jones Jr. and Isaiah Jackson unavailable. They've been replaced in the lineup by Gradey, Sanders and Lopez. Of the three, Lopez may be the safest option for fantasy managers. |

Derrick Jones Jr. Derrick Jones Jr. (knee) out Monday vs. Raptors
Mon, Nov 2, 2026, 10:23 AM
Derrick Jones Jr. (knee) is out for Monday's game against the Raptors.
Analysis: Jones left Sunday's game against the Warriors in the third quarter with a sore knee and didn't return. Now he's been ruled out for Monday's tilt with the Raptors. Keaton Wagler could start in Jones' absence. |

Max Strus Max Strus (foot) off the injury report Monday
Mon, Nov 2, 2026, 10:19 AM
NBA Injury Report
Max Strus (foot) is off the injury report for Monday's matchup with the Raptors.
Analysis: Strus appears poised to make his season debut on Monday, though the Clippers may exercise caution with his workload. Fantasy managers holding Strus should keep doing so to see how he plays against Toronto. |

Rui Hachimura Rui Hachimura (quad) out Monday vs. Raptors
Mon, Nov 2, 2026, 10:17 AM
Rui Hachimura (quad) is out for Monday's game against the Raptors.
Analysis: Hachimura is coming off a 24-point game in Sunday's loss to the Warriors, but he'll sit out the second night of a back-to-back against the Raptors Monday. With Hachimura sidelined with left quad soreness, Kobe Sanders could move into the starting lineup. |

Ohm Youngmisuk
Derrick Jones Jr. (knee) finished Sunday's loss to the Warriors with nine points (3-of-11 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), seven rebounds, one assist and one three-pointer.
Analysis: Jones exited Sunday's game late in the third quarter with a sore knee and did not return. That casts some doubt on his availability for Monday's game against the Raptors. If Jones can't play, Kobe Sanders may move into the starting lineup. |
Kris Dunn Kris Dunn tallies career-high seven steals Sunday
Sun, Nov 1, 2026, 5:22 PM
Kris Dunn accumulated 12 points (5-of-8 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), two rebounds, four assists and seven steals in Sunday's loss to the Warriors.
Analysis: After failing to record a steal in Friday's loss to the Timberwolves, Dunn compensated with the best performance of his career. The seven steals mark a new career high for the former lottery pick, whose defense has made him a fixture in Tyronn Lue's rotation since he joined the Clippers in 2024-25. Dunn also shot well on Sunday, but his defensive potential makes him an intriguing option for managers in 12-team leagues seeking steals. |

Darius Garland Darius Garland records 15 points, seven assists
Sun, Nov 1, 2026, 5:20 PM
Darius Garland tallied 15 points (4-of-12 FGs, 6-of-6 FTs), seven assists, one steal and one three-pointer in Sunday's loss to the Warriors.
Analysis: Garland kept the turnovers in check on Sunday, committing three, but he had a tough night shooting the basketball. Shooting 37.8 percent from three entering Sunday's game, the Clippers point guard shot 1-of-7 from beyond the arc. Garland struggling to knock down shots isn't a major issue compared to the turnovers, as he's averaging over five per game. The better he can do taking care of the basketball, the more valuable he'll be in nine-cat formats. |

Rui Hachimura Rui Hachimura scores team-high 24 points vs. GSW
Sun, Nov 1, 2026, 5:20 PM
Rui Hachimura accounted for 24 points (10-of-16 FGs), seven rebounds and four three-pointers in Sunday's loss to the Warriors.
Analysis: Hachimura had a good offensive night against the Warriors, but his final stat line reminded fantasy managers not to expect much beyond points, rebounds and three-pointers. In 30 minutes, Hachimura shot well over 50 percent from the field but did not record an assist, steal or blocked shot. The Clippers play three games next week, starting with the Raptors on Monday. |

Isaiah Jackson Isaiah Jackson blocks four shots vs. Minnesota
Fri, Oct 30, 2026, 5:27 PM
Isaiah Jackson finished Friday's loss to the Timberwolves with 10 points (3-of-6 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), seven rebounds, four assists, three steals and four blocks.
Analysis: Friday was a good night for managers rostering Jackson. In addition to matching his season-high in steals, the Clippers' starting center blocked four shots. In the first four games of the season, Jackson blocked only two shots. Jackson's defensive potential and field-goal percentage can make him valuable to fantasy managers, even though he's sharing center responsibilities with Brook Lopez (15 points, six rebounds and one block). Against the Timberwolves, both played 21 minutes. |
