Clippers' Nicolas Batum: Tallies four defensive stats
Batum scored zero points (0-1 FG), adding three rebounds, three assists, two steals and two blocks in 18 minutes during Monday's preseason win over Dallas.
Now in the twilight of his career, Batum's role on this Clippers team is going to be muted, to say the least. He should be in the rotation every night but is likely to be limited to about 20 minutes when everyone is healthy. At best, he could be utilized for streaming purposes if and when the Clippers are dealing with injuries or the schedule is highly favorable.

Clippers' Nicolas Batum: Puts up 19 points in win
Batum posted 19 points (6-13 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, two assists and two steals across 34 minutes in France's 78-66 win over Brazil in the Paris Olympics on Saturday.
Batum heavily contributed in the scoring column while picking up significant minutes in Saturday's win. The 35-year-old is competing in his fourth Olympic Games, and his veteran presence will play an important role in France's Olympic campaign. The 16-year NBA vet played in 57 regular-season games for the 76ers last season, during which he averaged 5.5 points, 4.2 rebounds and 2.2 assists across 25.8 minutes.

Clippers' Nicolas Batum: Agrees to deal with Clippers
Batum and the Clippers agreed to a two-year, $9.6 million deal Monday, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reports.
Batum had a strong market in free agency including some reported interest from the Spurs, but the veteran opted to return to a familiar franchise. Batum spent four seasons with the Clippers before joining the 76ers in 2023-24, and he will provide the team with some quality depth at both forward positions despite his advanced age.

76ers' Nicolas Batum: Parting ways with Philadelphia
Batum doesn't plan to return to the 76ers in free agency, Kelly Iko of The Athletic reports.
Batum will hit free agency following a season in which he appeared in 60 regular-season games, including 38 starts. Batum saw a significant role in the playoffs, averaging 6.3 points, 5.8 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 28.3 minutes per game during Philadelphia's first-round matchup against the Knicks, proving he still can add value to a team. As such, the 35-year-old pro will likely receive some interest in free agency.

76ers' Nicolas Batum: Significant role yields little offense
Batum provided four points (1-2 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal in 29 minutes during Thursday's 125-114 victory over the Knicks in Game 3 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.
Batum continues to do very little on offense despite playing meaningful minutes, highlighting the 76ers' lack of depth. Although he did manage three combined steals and blocks, the team would likely love for him to have scored more than four points. Given the 76ers have very few options when it comes to somewhat reliable producers, Batum should continue to play a significant role moving forward.
