Brook Lopez Brook Lopez drains five three-pointers vs. Bucks
Mon, Mar 23, 2026, 7:32 PM
Brook Lopez added 19 points (7-of-9 FGs), three rebounds, three assists, one steal, two blocks and five three-pointers in Monday's win over the Bucks.
Analysis: Lopez displayed the type of floor spacing on Monday that those within the Bucks organization are very familiar with. The veteran center and former champion with the Bucks had a massive impact in the third quarter, when he netted four triples and recorded his only two blocks of the night. Lopez didn't get a chance to test his hot hand in the fourth quarter because of the huge point differential between the two teams. However, he will look to stay hot against the Raptors on Friday. |

Darius Garland Darius Garland posts 15 points, six dimes in win
Mon, Mar 23, 2026, 7:25 PM
Darius Garland totaled 15 points (5-of-7 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), two rebounds, six assists, one steal and three three-pointers in the win over the Bucks on Monday.
Analysis: Given the Clippers' once-46-point lead, Garland's playing time was relatively low on Monday. Specifically, he finished with 18 total minutes, his fewest as a Clipper. Still, the former NBA All-Star made the most of his time by sinking a few shots from deep and recording at least six assists for the ninth game in a row. Garland will almost certainly put up more productive numbers in more competitive games going forward. Regardless, he did what he could in the minutes that he earned on Monday. |

Kawhi Leonard Kawhi Leonard scores 28 points in 25 mins vs. MIL
Mon, Mar 23, 2026, 7:17 PM
Kawhi Leonard added 28 points (8-of-18 FGs, 9-of-9 FTs), five rebounds, three assists, three steals, one block and three three-pointers in Monday's win over the Bucks.
Analysis: A lopsided victory kept Leonard off the floor in the fourth quarter, limiting him to just 25 minutes in total. On the one hand, the lower minutes could be seen as beneficial for the two-time Finals MVP, who has been dealing with an ankle injury recently. On the other hand, his limited game action left him with fewer minutes to produce at a high level. He still nearly reached 30 points in his time on the floor and was active on the defensive end, but he'll have a chance to put up even bigger numbers on Wednesday against the Raptors. |

Kawhi Leonard Leonard, Batum, Jones, Lopez, Garland to start Mon
Mon, Mar 23, 2026, 4:13 PM
LA Clippers
Kawhi Leonard, Darius Garland, Derrick Jones Jr., Brook Lopez and Nicolas Batum will start against the Bucks on Monday.
Analysis: The Clippers will roll out a starting lineup on Monday without John Collins, who will miss the game with an ankle injury. Batum will fill in for the injured Collins to provide the same sort of length and physicality at the forward position from the opening tip. The Clippers recently defeated the Dallas Mavericks to end a four-game losing streak, and a win on Monday would keep them in eighth place in the Western Conference standings, as the regular season nears its completion. |

Mon, Mar 23, 2026, 3:27 PM
Grant Mona
Kawhi Leonard (ankle) is available to play against the Bucks on Monday.
Analysis: Despite dealing with an ankle sprain, Leonard will suit up for Monday's contest, as the Clippers continue to battle for seeding in the Western Conference. The two-time Finals MVP is having one of the best seasons of his career thus far. His availability down the stretch of the season will be important both for the Clippers and for fantasy managers who are still competing in the playoffs. |

John Collins (ankle) is out for Monday's game against the Bucks.

Kawhi Leonard Kawhi Leonard questionable, John Collins probable
Sun, Mar 22, 2026, 7:09 PM
NBA Injury Report
Kawhi Leonard (ankle) is questionable for Monday's game against the Bucks, while John Collins (ankle) is probable.
Analysis: Leonard and Collins are dealing with left ankle sprains, but the former has a greater chance of not playing against the Bucks. If either player sits, Jordan Miller and Kobe Sanders are the players most likely to take on enhanced roles, with the spot starter being worth a look in deep leagues. |

Bennedict Mathurin Bennedict Mathurin (toe) to remain out vs. Bucks
Sun, Mar 22, 2026, 7:03 PM
NBA Injury Report
Bennedict Mathurin (toe) is out for Monday's game against the Bucks.
Analysis: Mathurin sat out all three games of the Clippers' road trip that concluded in Dallas on Saturday. He'll remain out for at least one more game, resulting in more minutes for Kris Dunn and Jordan Miller. While neither player is a must-stream option, Dunn is worth a look for managers seeking defensive production. |

Kawhi Leonard Kawhi Leonard posts 34/3/5/2/1 line vs. Dallas
Sat, Mar 21, 2026, 5:43 PM
Kawhi Leonard tallied 34 points (12-of-22 FGs, 5-of-5 FTs), three rebounds, five assists, two steals, one block and five three-pointers in Saturday's win over the Mavericks.
Analysis: While the Clippers may not have expected to require overtime to leave Dallas with a win, the tandem of Leonard and Darius Garland was at its best. The combined to score 75 of the team's 122 points, with Leonard dropping 34 points and a complete stat line with excellent percentages. Week 22 sets up to be another good week for managers rostering Leonard, as the Clippers play four games without a back-to-back. |

Darius Garland Darius Garland goes for season-high 41 points
Sat, Mar 21, 2026, 5:42 PM
Darius Garland finished Saturday's win over the Mavericks with 41 points (15-of-24 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), three rebounds, 11 assists, one steal, one block and eight three-pointers.
Analysis: Garland put on a show in Dallas, recording his first 40-point game since January 9, 2025. And he was efficient, shooting well over 50 percent from the field and dishing out 11 assists. Also, Garland played 39 minutes in the overtime victory, another step in the right direction for the point guard who's struggled with toe injuries the last two seasons. The Clippers sat Garland for the second half of overtime, relying on Kawhi Leonard to serve as the closer. |

NBA Injury Report
Darius Garland (foot) is off the injury report for Saturday's game against the Mavericks.

Jordan Miller Jordan Miller tallies 11/8/5 line in first start
Thu, Mar 19, 2026, 5:43 PM
Jordan Miller started on Thursday and contributed 11 points (2-of-8 FGs, 7-of-11 FTs), eight rebounds, five assists and one steal against the Pelicans.
Analysis: Making the first start of his career, Miller was able to turn in a well-rounded line. He made up for a rough shooting night by getting to the line, and he was able to extend his double-digit scoring streak to three games. Miller has been a solid rotation piece for the Clippers over the past two months, and while that hasn't led to much fantasy production, he has been able to provide them with some depth. He'll likely return to the bench for their next game. |

Derrick Jones Derrick Jones Jr. matches season-high 22 points
Thu, Mar 19, 2026, 5:39 PM
Derrick Jones Jr. led the Clippers with 22 points (7-of-11 FGs), four rebounds, three assists, one steal and one three-pointer in a 105-99 loss to the Pelicans on Thursday.
Analysis: With both Kawhi Leonard (ankle) and Darius Garland (toe) sidelined, Jones stepped up on offense to lead the Clippers in scoring, matching his season high for points. Jones has been productive for fantasy managers lately, though that has mostly been tied to his knack for getting defensive stats. This was a fun scoring outing, but it is unlikely he scores at this rate when Leonard and Garland are healthy. |

Bogdan Bogdanovic Bogdan Bogdanovi? scores 16 points off bench
Thu, Mar 19, 2026, 5:36 PM
Bogdan Bogdanovi? provided a boost off the bench with 16 points (6-of-9 FGs), one rebound, one assist and three three-pointers against the Pelicans on Thursday.
Analysis: Bogdanovi? hasn't been part of the Clippers' rotation since December, but with both Kawhi Leonard and Darius Garland out, they turned to him for some offense off the bench. It wasn't enough to get the win, but he delivered his second-highest scoring outing of the season. This was cool to see from Bogdanovi?, but there's no need to add him off the waiver wire. |

Kris Dunn, Jordan Miller, Derrick Jones Jr., John Collins and Brook Lopez will start Thursday's game against the Pelicans.

Analysis: After returning to the Clippers' lineup on Wednesday, Leonard will not play in Thursday's rematch with the Pelicans. His absence could push Kris Dunn back into the starting lineup after coming off the bench on Wednesday. However, Dunn does not offer much streaming value in that role. |

Thu, Mar 19, 2026, 10:36 AM
NBA Injury Report
Darius Garland (foot) has been ruled out against the Pelicans on Thursday.
Analysis: Garland will sit out the second leg of this back-to-back, which shouldn't come as a surprise. Kobe Sanders started in Garland's most recent absence and should assume that role once again, though his fantasy upside will be limited. |
