LA Clippers DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Los Angeles Clippers guard Terance Mann (shoulder) is out on Wednesday against the Trail Blazers. Mann had seven points, four rebounds, and two steals in 32 minutes in the loss to the Hawks on Sunday. However, per head coach Ty Lue, he sprained his shoulder during practice on Tuesday. Until fantasy managers hear otherwise, Mann has a chance to play in the rematch with Portland on Friday. But with Norman Powell (leg) also sidelined on Wednesday, Amir Coffey will enter the starting lineup. Coffey has averaged 11.3 points in 10 starts throughout the 2023-24 campaign, making him a viable DFS value option.

Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Norman Powell (leg) won't play on Wednesday night against Portland. He's battling a left leg contusion, so he's likely day-to-day. But since Powell is in the running to win the Sixth Man of the Year award, the Clippers will be without their top bench option. Terance Mann (shoulder) is also out versus the Trail Blazers, meaning minutes will be up for grabs. While Bones Hyland and possibly P.J. Tucker are in line to get extra work, Amir Coffey will enter the starting lineup. Coffey has averaged 11.3 points in 10 appearances with the first five this season, making him an ideal DFS value option.

Los Angeles Clippers guards Norman Powell (shin) and Terance Mann (shoulder) were both at shootaround on Wednesday morning. Mann said he is not concerned about his strained right shoulder following Sunday's dismal home loss to the Atlanta Hawks, but he remains officially listed as questionable for Wednesday's meeting with the Portland Trail Blazers. Powell is dealing with a left lower leg contusion after missing Sunday's defeat but is trending in the right direction for a revenge game against Portland. The 30-year-old sharpshooting swingman has played a more pronounced role as L.A.'s sixth man with Russell Westbrook (hand) out, hovering around fantasy's top 150 over his last eight games on averages of 16.3 points, 3.1 rebounds, 2.6 three-pointers, and 1.0 steals in 28.8 minutes. Wednesday's matchup is a soft one against a Blazers squad that ranks 26th in opponent field-goal percentage (49.2%).

Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Norman Powell (leg) is questionable for Wednesday's matchup against the Trail Blazers. A left lower leg contusion took him out of the lineup for Sunday's game against Atlanta, and Powell could be out for a second consecutive game. With Powell missing, Amir Coffey saw the most minutes off the Clippers bench on Sunday and should get extra action again on Wednesday, especially if Terance Mann (shoulder) also sits out the contest.

Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Terance Mann (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's matchup against Portland. He's dealing with a right shoulder strain and could be out of the lineup for the first time since early November. Norman Powell (leg) would benefit from Mann's absence but is also questionable for the game. If both players are out, we should see Amir Coffey play a bigger part in the rotation in a favorable matchup against a struggling team.
