Impact Coffey got his 10th start of the season Sunday with both Paul George (knee) and Kawhi Leonard (groin) sidelined. Coffey's 10 rebounds were his most of the season as he notched his second double-double of his career. He figures to return to the bench once Leonard and George return from their respective injuries.

FEBRUARY 29 • ROTOWIRE

Starting Wednesday Coffey will be in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Warriors, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.

Impact Coffey is replacing the injured Kawhi Leonard (adductor) and he'll be joined in the first unit by James Harden, Terance Mann, Paul George and Ivica Zubac. Across seven starts this season, Coffey has registered averages of 10.7 points, 2.9 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.7 triples per contest.

Stays productive Friday Coffey finished Friday's 136-125 win over the Pistons with 14 points (5-7 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds, one block and four steals across 24 minutes off the bench.

Impact The four steals were a season high for Coffey, and he scored in double digits for the fourth straight game. The fifth-year forward is averaging 13.5 points, 2.3 boards, 1.5 steals, 1.3 threes, 0.8 assists and 0.8 blocks in 24.5 minutes a contest over that stretch while shooting 59.4 percent from the floor, 41.7 percent (5-for-12) from long distance and 91.7 percent from the free-throw line. He may not be able to maintain that efficiency for much longer, but Coffey appears to be earning a key depth role on the Clippers' roster.

FEBRUARY 3 • ROTOWIRE

Back to bench Coffey won't start Friday's game against the Pistons, Ohm Youngmisuk of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Coffey drew a spot start Wednesday but will return to a reserve role Friday, as Paul George (groin) has been cleared to suit up. As a reserve (27 games), Coffey has averaged 4.0 points and 1.3 rebounds in 13.7 minutes per game.

FEBRUARY 2 • ROTOWIRE

Productive in spot start Coffey registered 17 points (5-7 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 5-5 FT), one rebound, one assist and one steal across 21 minutes during Wednesday's 125-109 win over the Wizards.

Impact Coffey got the start Wednesday with Paul George (groin) sidelined, and he responded well, putting up solid scoring numbers and missing just two shots from the field. Coffey's long-term role will be a bench one, but he could be a decent streaming alternative in some formats if George doesn't start against the Pistons on Friday. He's averaging 10.7 points, 2.9 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 0.4 steals per game when deployed as a starter in 2023-24.

FEBRUARY 1 • ROTOWIRE

Will start sans George Coffey will start Wednesday's game against the Wizards, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.

Impact With Paul George (groin) ruled out, Coffey will make his first start since Dec. 29. Coffey's made six starts already this season and averaged 9.7 points, 3.2 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 28.5 minutes during those contests. The last time George was sidelined (Dec. 20), Coffey started and played 39 minutes versus the Mavericks, posting 12 points, five rebounds and three assists.

Productive off bench Coffey finished Monday's 118-108 loss to Cleveland with 13 points (5-9 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), one rebound, one assist and one steal in 27 minutes.

Impact The Clippers have been utilizing a lot of smaller lineups in the absence of Ivica Zubac (calf), and Coffey has certainly benefitted. Over the past four games, Coffey has produced averages of 9.3 points, 2.0 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 1.3 three-pointers.

Kawhi Leonard's triple-double leads Clippers over LeBron-less Lakers, 127-116

Kawhi Leonard had a triple-double while James Harden added 23 more in the Clippers 127-116 victory over the Lakers on Tuesday.

JANUARY 24

Efficient outing in blowout Coffey racked up nine points (4-5 FG, 1-1 3Pt) and two rebounds in 23 minutes during Monday's 138-111 win over Phoenix.

Impact Coffey has failed to score in double figures in five straight games since moving to the bench, but Monday's outing was his closest attempt. He's held a consistent role since mid-December, playing double-digit minutes in 13 straight games (six starts), averaging 6.3 points, 2.3 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 22.7 minutes per game. However, barring injuries, Coffey doesn't have much fantasy upside.

JANUARY 9 • ROTOWIRE

Brews up 12 points in spot start Coffey notched 12 points (3-6 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, three assists and one steal in 39 minutes during Wednesday's 120-111 win over the Mavericks.

Impact Coffey moved into the starting lineup Wednesday, replacing Paul George who was ruled out due to an illness. Surprisingly, Coffey logged a team-high 39 minutes in the win, scoring double-digits for just the second time all season. With such an inconsistent role, there is no reason to consider Coffey in standard formats, outside of situational streaming opportunities such as Wednesday.

DECEMBER 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to starting five Coffey is in the starting five for Wednesday's game versus the Mavericks, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.

Impact Coffey will replace Paul George (illness) in the starting lineup Wednesday. Coffey recorded 18 points, four rebounds and one assist in 29 minutes during his only other starting appearances this season.

Back to bench Ohm Youngmisuk of ESPN.comCoffey will move to the bench for Saturday's game against the Knicks, Ohm Youngmisuk reports.

Impact No surprise here, as Paul George is returning from a one-game absence to reclaim his starting spot. Coffey fared well in his start Thursday against the Warriors, scoring 18 points with four rebounds, one assist and four three-pointers.

DECEMBER 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Starting against Warriors Coffey will start Thursday's game against the Warriors, Joey Linn of SI.com reports.

Impact Paul George will miss his first game of the season with a groin issue, but he's considered day-to-day. This will be a rare opportunity for Coffey, as he's made just 11 appearances this season with an average of 6.1 minutes per contest.

Not starting Tuesday Coffey is not in the starting lineup Tuesday against the Bulls, Joey Linn of SI.com reports.

Impact The 25-year-old started Sunday and delivered 18 points (5-13 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 8-9 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one steal in 38 minutes with Kawhi Leonard (knee) and Paul George (knee) unavailable. Coffey totaled just 10 minutes over the five previous contests, so he's unlikely to have a major role Tuesday with Leonard and George back in action.

Drops 18 points in spot start Coffey fouled out of Sunday's 122-99 loss to the Cavaliers after recording 18 points (5-13 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 8-9 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one steal over 38 minutes.

Impact Coffey played an expanded role with a number of the Clippers' primary pieces sitting out Sunday. While the 18 points marked a season-high for Coffey, the performance isn't one fantasy managers should be chasing. Prior to Sunday, Coffey had appeared in two of the past five games, with most of his minutes coming at the end of blowouts.
