Nudges duoble-double Saturday Plumlee registered eight points (2-3 FG, 4-6 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists and one steal in 19 minutes during Saturday's 113-108 loss to the Magic.

Impact Plumlee grabbed double-digit boards for the first time in almost two weeks, turning in a serviceable fantasy line despite still playing off the bench. It appears as though he is going to top out at about 20 minutes on most nights, making him more of a target in deeper formats as opposed to standard leagues.

Modest production Saturday Plumlee totaled six points (1-4 FG, 4-5 FT), four rebounds, one assist and two blocks over 21 minutes during Saturday's 106-95 victory over the Knicks.

Impact Plumlee logged 21 minutes off the bench in the win, ending with a modest fantasy line. Since joining the Clippers, his role has diminished, playing as the primary backup behind Ivica Zubac. While Plumlee can still chip in across the board in limited minutes, he is by no longer a viable 12-team asset moving forward. He can be utilized for streaming purposes on occasion, especially if Zubac misses time.

Solid outing as starter Plumlee ended Friday's 128-127 loss to Sacramento with 13 points (5-7 FG, 3-5 FT), eight rebounds, three assists and one block in 26 minutes.

Impact Plumlee started for the second game in a row and the fourth time in the Clippers' last five contests, and he continues to produce when given a chance. The former Hornets big man is averaging 9.4 points with 11.4 rebounds per game in that five-game span.

Gets starting nod Plumlee is starting at center against the Kings on Friday.

Impact The Clippers are without Ivica Zubac (calf) for the third time in four games. Plumlee has been playing really well lately and is coming off a 20-rebound performance against the Warriors on Thursday.

MARCH 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Pulls down 20 boards in spot start Plumlee closed with 12 points (3-5 FG, 6-6 FT), 20 rebounds and two assists over 29 minutes during Thursday's 115-91 loss to the Warriors.

Impact Plumlee started with Ivica Zubac (calf) sidelined and didn't disappoint, recording his second double-double over his last four outings while pulling down a season-high mark in rebounds. The veteran has shown he can produce when given minutes, but his role in the immediate future will be tied to Zubac's availability. Plumlee is averaging 8.0 points and 10.0 rebounds per game in six appearances with Los Angeles.

Starting Thursday Plumlee will join the first unit for Thursday's meeting with the Warriors, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.

Impact Plumlee will make his third start in the last four games with Ivica Zubac (calf) sidelined. In his previous two starts, Plumlee averaged 8.5 points, 10.0 rebounds and 2.0 assists across 26.0 minutes.

MARCH 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Back to bench Plumlee will return to the bench Tuesday against Minnesota, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.

Impact No surprises here with Ivica Zubac (calf) returning from a two-game absence. As a reserve with the Clippers, Plumlee is likely looking at minutes in the high teens.

Double-doubles in start Plumlee logged 10 points (4-4 FG, 2-3 FT), 10 rebounds, four assists and one steal in 25 minutes during Friday's 176-175 double-overtime loss to the Kings.

Impact Plumlee drew the start for Ivica Zubac, who is day-to-day with a calf injury. While it wasn't a surprise to see Plumlee put up a solid fantasy line like we were used to seeing in Charlotte, he'll be kicking himself for giving up a couple costly turnovers in double overtime. If Zubac is able to return Sunday against Denver, Plumlee will likely see his minutes go back to the teens.

FEBRUARY 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Enters starting lineup Plumlee will start Friday against the Kings, according to Law Murray of The Athletic.

Impact Ivica Zubac (strained right calf) will not play Friday and is considered day-to-day. Plumlee's fantasy managers were spoiled by his days as a starting center for Charlotte and are surely looking forward to this opportunity.

FEBRUARY 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Productive despite bench role Plumlee provided six points (2-2 FG, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal across 18 minutes during Thursday's 116-107 win over the Suns.

Impact Plumlee was productive again Thursday despite his reduction in role, filling the stat sheet in just 18 minutes. The move to Los Angeles has essentially brought to an end his 12-team value, a sad narrative for anyone who managed to snap him up earlier in the season. With that said, it does appear as though he will have a consistent role for his new team, soaking up all of the backup center minutes. While managers in standard formats can safely move on, he could still have some deep-league appeal thanks to his ability to contribute across multiple categories.

Set to debut Tuesday Plumleee is expected to make his Clippers debut Tuesday against the Warriors, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.

Impact Plumlee was dealt from the Hornets to the Clippers on Thursday in exchange for Reggie Jackson and a 2028 second-round pick, and he's ready to get back to business after settling in. The Duke product averaged 15.4 points, 9.0 rebounds and 3.8 assists in his last 10 contests as a Hornet and could look to push Ivica Zubac for the starting center job going forward.
