LA Clippers DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Atlanta Hawks guard/forward Bogdan Bogdanovic (illness) is good to go on Wednesday night against Portland. He'd been listed as probable because of an illness, although it didn't appear severe enough to keep him off the floor. With Atlanta down Jalen Johnson (ankle), Onyeka Okongwu (toe), and Trae Young (finger), Bogdanovic has a chance to smash fantasy expectations.

Los Angeles Clippers guard James Harden (shoulder) is questionable ahead of Thursday's game in Chicago. Harden has routinely appeared on the injury report of late because of a left shoulder strain. However, it hasn't kept him off the floor. There has been chatter about lightening his workload to keep him healthy for a deep postseason push, so he might sit this one out, especially since the Clippers will travel to New Orleans for a Friday night battle with the Pelicans. That said, if Harden gets the night off, Amir Coffey and Bones Hyland could earn more minutes, although neither player can be trusted for fantasy production.

Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard (back) is questionable for Thursday's meeting with Chicago. The veteran left Tuesday's matchup with the Minnesota Timberwolves and was shown leaving the arena before the end of the first half. Although details were scarce, TNT's Stephanie Ready eventually reported that Leonard was bothered by back spasms. He has played 58 games this season, his most as a Clipper. But considering the 32-year-old is also dealing with a groin strain, fantasy managers shouldn't expect to see him out there on Thursday. There's also a realistic chance he won't be in the lineup on Friday in New Orleans. Nonetheless, until Leonard returns, Amir Coffey, averaging 11.3 points and 3.9 boards in 10 starts this season, could fill the void. There will also be more scoring opportunities for Paul George, Norman Powell, and James Harden (shoulder).

Atlanta Hawks guard Bogdan Bogdanovic (illness) is probable for Wednesday's meeting with Portland. The veteran sharpshooter was a late addition to the injury report because of an illness. While he should be good to go, there's still a small chance he'll get downgraded heading into the contest. The Hawks desperately need him, considering they won't have Trae Young (finger), Saddiq Bey (knee), and Onyeka Okongwu (toe). Jalen Johnson (ankle) is also on track to miss his third consecutive game. If Bogdanovic is available, he's a lock for any fantasy lineup. However, if he's not on the floor, De'Andre Hunter and Clint Capela could see significantly more scoring opportunities behind Dejounte Murray.

Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard (back) exited Tuesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Details were initially scarce surrounding his departure. However, he was shown leaving the arena in street clothes, so most assumed things weren't good. TNT's Stephanie Ready provided an update, reporting that the 32-year-old was bothered by back spasms. Leonard missed Sunday's game with a groin injury and had been questionable heading into this one for the same reason. But now there's a chance he won't be available for Thursday's meeting with Chicago or Friday's contest versus New Orleans. Considering both games are on the road, Leonard might remain in Los Angeles in preparation for the Clippers' next home game on March 17. That said, if the multi-time All-Star misses time, Norman Powell and Amir Coffey could benefit the most from a fantasy standpoint.
