Ivica Zubac - Questionable Thursday Zubac (calf) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Lakers, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.
Impact Zubac missed Monday's loss to the Pacers with the calf injury but could retake the court Thursday after being labeled day-to-day. Isaiah Hartenstein and Serge Ibaka should split work should Zubac miss a second straight contest.
FEBRUARY 3, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Jay Scrubb - Out Thursday Scrubb (toe) has been ruled out for Thursday's matchup with the Lakers, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.
Impact Scrubb is dealing with turf toe on his right foot and will miss the Los Angeles showdown. The two-way player hasn't had many significant opportunities with the Clippers, so this news shouldn't change the minutes distribution very much.

Ivica Zubac - Receives day-to-day label Clippers head coach Tyronn Lue said prior to Monday's 122-116 loss to the Pacers that Zubac's right calf injury is considered a day-to-day concern, Justin Russo of the 'Clip & Roll...
Impact Zubac was sidelined for the first time since Jan. 6 due to the injury, allowing Serge Ibaka to step in as the Clippers' starting center. Ibaka played 22 minutes and finished with 14 points, 11 rebounds, two blocks and one steal, while Isaiah Hartenstein handled the backup duties and posted more modest statistics in 14 minutes. The two will likely continue to absorb the majority of the minutes at center if Zubac isn't ready to go for Thursday's game against the Lakers.

Serge Ibaka - Double-double in loss Ibaka ended with 14 points (6-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 11 rebounds, two blocks and one steal in 22 minutes during Monday's 122-116 loss to Indiana.
Impact Ibaka drew the start with Ivica Zubac (calf) inactive and logged his second double-double of the season. Despite his productivity Monday, Ibaka is an embodiment of volatility. He exceeded 10 points three times in January, while also scoring zero points three times. Even when Zubac is out, Ibaka isn't always the beneficiary. This lack of reliability makes him nearly unusable outside of extremely deep leagues.
FEBRUARY 1, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Amir Coffey - Heats up Monday Coffey provided 27 points (9-14 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal in 35 minutes during Monday's 122-116 loss to the Pacers.
Impact Coffey wraps up January having achieved the elusive 50/40/90 shooting slash. Logging 30.8 minutes per game over that stretch, Coffey is a volatile scorer but a central component of the Clippers' rotation sans Paul George (elbow). Coffey was hot from three Monday, and he should retain a healthy role even if George ultimately rejoins the lineup.

Terance Mann - Starting again Monday Mann will start Monday's game against the Pacers, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.
Impact Although Marcus Morris is available and starting once again, Mann will remain in the starting lineup for a fifth consecutive game. He's averaged 9.5 points and 3.0 rebounds in 26.3 minutes per contest across his last four appearances.
JANUARY 31, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Serge Ibaka - Set to start for Zubac Ibaka will start Monday's game against Indiana, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.
Impact With Ivica Zubac (calf) sidelined, the Clippers will turn to Ibaka for his first start since Jan. 19 and just his ninth of the season. The veteran has mostly been the odd man out over the last few weeks, as he's played double-digit minutes only twice in the last eight games. However, he should be set for a sizable boost in minutes with Zubac out.
JANUARY 31, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Ivica Zubac - Ruled out Monday Zubac (calf) is out Monday against the Pacers, Ohm Youngmisuk of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Zubac will be sidelined for the first time since early January as he deals with right calf soreness. Isaiah Hartenstein and Serge Ibaka should see additional run against Indiana.
JANUARY 31, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Nicolas Batum - Available Monday Batum (back) is available for Monday's game against the Pacers, Ohm Youngmisuk of ESPN.com reports. He will come off the bench, per Law Murray of The Athletic.
Impact Batum missed Sunday's matchup against the Hornets due to low back soreness, but he'll be able to return to action a day later. He's averaged 9.0 points and 4.2 rebounds in 21.4 minutes per game across his last five appearances.
JANUARY 31, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Justise Winslow - Making most of extra minutes Winslow posted 13 points (5-7 FG, 3-4 FT), eight rebounds, three blocks, one assist and one steal in 25 minutes Sunday in the Clippers' 115-90 win over the Hornets.
Impact Winslow has now posted two fantasy-friendly lines in a row, after previously going for 10 points, 10 rebounds, five assists, one steal and one block in the Clippers' loss to the Heat on Friday. He's logged between 23 and 26 minutes in each of the last four contests, though it's worth noting that one of Marcus Morris or Nicolas Batum has been missing for all of those contests. Morris made his return to the lineup Sunday, while Batum (back) sat out and is listed as questionable for Monday's game in Indiana. If Batum gains clearance to play Monday, expect Winslow to see at least a slight drop in playing time despite playing well of late.
JANUARY 31, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Ivica Zubac - Questionable against Pacers Zubac is questionable for Monday's game against the Pacers due to right calf soreness, Ohm Youngmisuk of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Zubac has been held to single figures in the scoring column in each of the last four contests and has averaged 5.8 points and 6.0 rebounds in 19.3 minutes per game during that time. He hasn't missed a game since early January, but Isaiah Hartenstein and Serge Ibaka should see increased roles if Zubac is unavailable Monday.
JANUARY 31, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Nicolas Batum - Questionable Monday Batum (back) is questionable for Monday's game against the Pacers, Ohm Youngmisuk of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Batum was unavailable Sunday against the Hornets due to a back injury but will have a chance to return for the second half of the back-to-back set. If he remains out, Justise Winslow and Terance Mann should see additional run.
