Top Clippers News

  • Clippers' Ivica Zubac: Cleared to play Saturday

    Zubac (ankle) will be available for Saturday's game against the Celtics, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

    Zubac is ahead of schedule in his rehab from a Grade 2 left ankle sprain he sustained in a win over the Lakers on Dec. 20 and will suit up Saturday following a five-game absence. The veteran center was just recently cleared to return to on-court activities, so it wouldn't be surprising to see him operate under a minutes restriction against Boston. Still, his return will leave fewer minutes available for the likes of Brook Lopez and Yanic Konan Niederhauser.

  • Clippers' Brook Lopez: Miserable showing Thursday

    Lopez accumulated three points (1-12 FG, 1-12 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 20 minutes during Thursday's 118-101 victory over the Jazz.

    It was a dreadful shooting display by Lopez, who saw fewer minutes than Yanic Konan Niederhauser on Thursday. Lopez should remain the top center while Ivica Zubac (ankle) is on the shelf, but it appears head coach Tyronn Lue is comfortable riding a hot-hand approach when applicable. Lopez has averaged 10.8 points, 5.2 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 1.4 blocks in 27.8 minutes per game in his last five outings (all starts).

  • Clippers' James Harden: Adds 20 points in win

    Harden notched 20 points (5-14 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 9-11 FT), three rebounds and seven assists in 29 minutes during Thursday's 118-101 victory over the Jazz.

    Harden delivered another steady performance Thursday to help secure the sixth straight win for the Clippers. The veteran guard's three-point shot wasn't falling again, shooting one for six from downtown for the second straight game, but he continues to get to the free-throw line at will. The 36-year-old is averaging 10.2 made free throws on 11.4 attempts per game over the past five contests while posting 26.4 points, 3.2 rebounds and 6.2 assists in 34.6 minutes per game. While Harden's assist totals haven't been gaudy in recent games, he has committed one or fewer turnovers in each of the past two games, something he had done in only one other game this season.

  • Clippers' Yanic Konan Niederhauser: Grabs 10 rebounds in win

    Niederhauser amassed six points (3-7 FG), 10 rebounds, one assist and two blocks across 27 minutes during Thursday's 118-101 win over Utah.

    Niederhauser has taken on a larger role with Ivica Zubac (ankle) sidelined, logging 25 and 27 minutes over the past two games. The 2025 first-round pick finished second on the team in rebounds, with six of them being offensive boards, and tied for the team lead with two blocks. The rookie center is averaging 11.0 points, 8.0 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.5 blocks in 26 minutes over the past two games.

  • Clippers' Kawhi Leonard: Dominant stretch continues

    Leonard finished with 45 points (16-29 FG, 6-16 3Pt, 7-9 FT), seven rebounds, three assists, two blocks and two steals in 39 minutes during Thursday's 118-101 win over Utah.

    Leonard was dominant once again in Thursday's win over the Jazz, recording his third game of the season with at least 40 points following his 55-point outburst Dec. 28. The 34-year-old drilled a season high six three pointers en route to the Clippers' sixth straight win. The star forward is in the midst of a historic stretch during the six-game win streak, averaging 39.0 points, 8.5 rebounds, 4.0 assists, 2.7 steals and 1.5 blocks over 38.5 minutes per game. The only other players in NBA history to average those numbers or better over a six-game span are James Harden and Michael Jordan.

  • Clippers' Bogdan Bogdanovic: Without timetable for return

    Bogdanovic (hamstring) won't return during the Clippers' current homestand and is without a timetable for a return ahead of the team's three-game road trip that begins against New York on Wednesday, Joey Linn of SI.com reports.

    Bogdanovic is set to miss his third straight game Thursday against Utah and is expected to miss a minimum of two more games after that due to a left hamstring injury. With the veteran guard sidelined, Kobe Sanders and Jordan Miller are candidates to see an uptick in playing time.

  • Clippers' Ivica Zubac: Progressing in recovery

    Zubac (ankle) has progressed enough in his recovery to participate in on-court activities, Joey Linn of SI.com reports.

    Zubac suffered a Grade 2 left ankle sprain against the Lakers on Dec. 20. It's an injury that typically takes at least three weeks to recover from, so the veteran center should be re-evaluated by medical staff in mid-January, at which point the Clippers will have a clearer idea of when Zubac can return to the lineup. Brook Lopez will likely continue to start at center for the Clippers for as long as Zubac is on the shelf.

  • Clippers' James Harden: Experiences slight dip in win

    Harden posted 21 points (6-14 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 8-10 FT), three rebounds, five assists and one steal across 30 minutes during Tuesday's 131-90 victory over the Kings.

    The game got out of hand early, which is likely one reason for Harden's slight regression in the contest. A cold night beyond the arc was another factor, and that's been a bit of a concern in Harden's recent lines. Although the sharpshooter has converted more than 50 percent of his long-range shots six times this season, he's hit that percentage only once during December.

  • Clippers' Yanic Konan Niederhauser: Shines in relief with 16 points

    Niederhauser provided 16 points (6-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-6 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one block across 25 minutes during Tuesday's 131-90 victory over the Kings.

    Although John Collins made an appearance despite an injury tag, the team elected to sit him midway through the third quarter. Niederhauser stepped in and scored 11 of his 16 points in cleanup duty. Ivica Zubac's (ankle) absence has affected the depth chart, and it's given the 2025 first-round pick a bit of a minute boost. The Penn State product isn't relevant in fantasy at the moment, but he could see more time if injuries mount in the frontcourt.

  • Clippers' Kawhi Leonard: Continues torrid run of production

    Leonard had 33 points (11-19 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 6-7 FT), five rebounds, five assists, one block and three steals over 33 minutes during Tuesday's 131-90 win over the Kings.

    Leonard has been unstoppable recently, and he followed up his dynamic 55-point performance against the Pistons with another stellar performance. The Clippers didn't need much from Leonard, but sitting for injury management is a thing of the past for the veteran, who is appearing in every game without back-to-back restrictions. Leonard has a great final month of the year, averaging 29.8 points, 7.4 rebounds, 3.9 assists and 2.3 steals over 12 games in December.

  • Clippers' Nicolas Batum: Coming off bench Tuesday

    Batum is not in the Clippers' starting lineup against the Kings on Tuesday, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports.

    Batum made his third start of the season during Sunday's 112-99 win over the Pistons, when he logged 12 points, four rebounds, one assist and one steal over 31 minutes. He'll return to the bench for Tuesday's contest after John Collins (illness) was cleared to play.

  • Clippers' John Collins: Good to go Tuesday

    Collins (illness) is available for Tuesday's game against the Kings, Joey Linn of SI.com reports.

    Collins will shed his questionable tag and return to action after missing Sunday's win over Detroit due to an illness. The 28-year-old forward has been a mainstay in the starting lineup since Nov. 10, and he has averaged 13.0 points, 4.5 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 1.2 steals in 27.0 minutes per game across 10 outings during December. Nicolas Batum will likely see his minutes dip with Collins available.

  • Clippers' John Collins: Iffy for Tuesday

    Collins (illness) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Kings.

    Collins is still under the weather and is in jeopardy of missing his second consecutive contest. If the 28-year-old forward is unable to give it a go Tuesday, Nicolas Batum will likely take on an increased role. Over his last five games, Collins has averaged 13.6 points, 5.2 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 2.0 combined steals-plus-blocks in 26.8 minutes per tilt.
