Leonard

Leonard has been effective in the four games since he returned from a three-game absence with a knee injury. He hasn’t been quite as good as he was prior to that, but he has been able to keep his 20-point streak alive. He hasn’t scored fewer than 20 points in a game since he scored 19 in 28 minutes in a November matchup with the Lakers. Leonard will continue to be a priority on offense, and he’ll look to keep his streak going in Phoenix on Sunday.

Initially questionable for Friday’s game, Leonard is officially good to go. His availability means that Kobe Sanders will remain with the reserves, eliminating most of the rookie’s streaming value.

Leonard continues to be listed as questionable ahead of games, but he has played in the Clippers’ last three. Kobe Sanders started in his place previously and could return to the starting unit if something changes with Leonard’s availability.

Leonard was initially listed as questionable, but he will be available for a third straight game. He had 28 points in 25 minutes on Sunday and should be in for another strong night against Brooklyn.

Leonard is once again listed as questionable. As he continues to manage a knee contusion, it’s likely that he’ll receive this status ahead of several more games in the near future. But the lingering knee issue hasn’t slowed the two-time Finals MVP down much when on the floor. He’s scored at least 20 points in a career-best 24 straight games, which has been key in the Clippers’ recent 15-3 stretch. If available on Tuesday, he should be set for another productive outing.

Leonard is still on a minutes restriction, and he played the first few minutes of the fourth quarter to hit his threshold before checking out for the night. The good news for fantasy managers is that the Clippers’ forward provided good value while on the court, and that’s usually the case for Leonard, regardless of any restrictions he may be under. The Clippers play three games in Week 15, and a Sunday/Monday back-to-back caps it. As a result, this could be a two-game week for Leonard, depending on how his playing time is managed.

Initially questionable for Sunday’s game, Leonard got through his pregame routine without issue and will play. He was limited to 25 minutes in Thursday’s win over the Lakers, and the Clippers’ forward may be under a similar restriction on Sunday. Kobe Sanders will get solid minutes off the bench, but the rookie does not need to be rostered in redraft leagues.

In addition to the left knee contusion that sidelined him for three games before his return on Thursday, Leonard is under the weather going into the Clippers’ final game of Week 14. If he’s unable to play, rookie Kobe Sanders should return to the starting lineup. He would be worth streaming if allowed to start.

Back in action after a three-game absence, Leonard was limited to 25 minutes on Thursday. He made the most of his time on the floor, averaging nearly one point per minute and finishing a blocked shot shy of a complete stat line. With the Clippers not having a back-to-back until the end of Week 15, hopefully that means Leonard will be able to get into a rhythm and not worry about taking an injury management night. Kobe Sanders came off the bench on Thursday, finishing with 11 points (4-of-6 FGs), four rebounds, one assist, one steal and three three-pointers in 24 minutes.

After a three-game absence, Leonard is available and back in the starting lineup. His return means that Kobe Sanders will head back to the bench, where he offers minimal fantasy value in redraft leagues. That’s the lone change to the starting lineup.
