Smith to see a boost in minutes: Clippers PF Blake Griffin has a broken left kneecap that could sideline the No. 1 overall draft pick for six weeks. The Clippers confirmed Griffin's stress fracture late Monday night. Griffin won't be in the Clippers' lineup when they face the Lakers in their opener Tuesday night, and the former Oklahoma star could be out much longer. Expect Chris Kaman to see more touches in the meantime. DeAndre Jordan and Craig Smith should see a boost in playing time.

Fantasy Analysis

It looked like Smith and Jordan would be a non-factor in Fantasy this season, but they could become worthy of a waiver wire pickup in larger formats if they get off to a good start. Griffin won't be back until at least the end of December, so there is time to get some use out of Jordan and/or Smith. Keep an eye on their progress.

Smith gave the Clippers a big boost with a season-high 18 points off the bench in a 113-110 win over the Grizzlies on Saturday night.

Advice

Smith, acquired from Minnesota in the offseason, was 8 for 11 from the field and added five rebounds and two steals in 23 minutes. He likely won't play like this consistently enough to be a viable fantasy option, but he could be valuable for the Clippers while they await the debut of No. 1 overall pick Blake Griffin - a key member of their frontcourt who's sidelined with a knee injury.
