Bogdan

Bogdanović

The deal to bring in Bogdanovic gives Houston more floor spacing around its top offensive players. The veteran wing dealt with injuries throughout the 2025-26 season with the Clippers, which left him on the outskirts of the nightly rotation for chunks of the season and decreased overall production. However, he’s a proven shooter and secondary ball handler, which should be beneficial for Houston if he can round back into form. He is not expected to have much fantasy value during the 2026-27 season.

Sunday’s game was the second for Bogdanović since March 23, and he had one of his most productive outings of the season. The veteran wing shot 5-of-8 from beyond the arc against the Warriors, matching his season-high in that category. And the 17 points were the most in a game for Bogdanović since November 14, when he scored a season-high 21 in a double-overtime win over the Mavericks. Given what the Clippers’ rotation has looked like on most nights since the All-Star break, there may not be many opportunities available to Bogdanović in Wednesday’s Play-In Tournament game against the Warriors.

Bogdanović hasn’t been part of the Clippers’ rotation since December, but with both Kawhi Leonard and Darius Garland out, they turned to him for some offense off the bench. It wasn’t enough to get the win, but he delivered his second-highest scoring outing of the season. This was cool to see from Bogdanović, but there’s no need to add him off the waiver wire.

Bogdanović is good to go for Friday’s game, but he’s unlikely to get the minutes needed to affect fantasy basketball. Leave him on the waiver wire.

Bogdanović is a late addition to the injury report which doesn’t bode well for his chances of taking the court against San Antonio. His absence isn’t particularly notable for fantasy managers due to his lengthy absence and limited role in LA’s rotation.

Sidelined since just after Christmas, Bogdanović will be available for Sunday’s game. His return gives the Clippers another option on the wing, but the veteran guard/forward is unlikely to affect fantasy basketball.

While left hip tightness forced an early exit from the Clippers’ December 26 win in Portland, Bogdanović has missed the first three games of the team’s five-game homestand due to left hamstring injury management. Not only will he miss the final two games, but there’s no guarantee that he’ll be available when the Clippers hit the road on January 7 against the Knicks. According to the team, Bogdanović is “undergoing a process to address the residual weakness in the left hamstring hip area.”

Bogdanović left Friday’s win over the Trail Blazers with tightness in his left hip, but hamstring injury management is the reason he won’t play on Sunday. Kobe Sanders and Jordan Miller may pick up a few more minutes off the bench, but that isn’t guaranteed with Derrick Jones Jr. available.

Bogdanović played two minutes in the first half before exiting due to left hip tightness. If the veteran wing has to miss time, his absence won’t affect fantasy basketball, but it may free up a few more minutes for rookie Kobe Sanders and Jordan Miller. There’s no need to stream Sanders or Miller in redraft leagues.

Harden is back in the Clippers’ lineup after a one-game absence. His return means that Bogdan Bogdanović will head to the bench, taking on a role that makes him a non-factor in most fantasy leagues. The Clippers’ other four starters are unchanged.
