The Clippers lost to the Raptors in OT on Friday, and they’ll finish up their three-game road trip with matchups against the Wizards on Monday and the Bulls on Tuesday. Leonard’s absence will free up more playing time for Kobe Sanders and Jordan Miller.

Robinson is usually relied on for points and three-pointers, and he’s upped his production in those categories recently. He’s now made at least four three-pointers in four consecutive games, his most productive stretch of the season to date. Even with Detroit’s depth, there’s a clear need for Robinson due to his shooting ability. That will preserve his value in category leagues.

The Pistons were never challenged on Saturday, so Duren and the other starters played fewer minutes than they usually would. The good news for fantasy managers was that he was productive while on the floor, falling two rebounds shy of a double-double. The Pistons play four games in Week 14, starting with the Celtics on Monday.

Detroit led by 34 points at the half, and the margin would grow to a point where none of the starters played during the fourth quarter. That’s unfortunate for Cunningham’s managers, as they may have been counting on a big night from him, given how depleted the Pacers were. The good news is that the Pistons play four games in Week 14, and Monday’s matchup with the Celtics should be far more competitive.

Harris returned to the locker room during the third quarter for an unspecified reason and did not play again. The Pistons did not announce any injury, and Saturday’s blowout made it unlikely that Harris would have played in the fourth quarter if there wasn’t an issue. The Pistons open a four-game Week 14 on Monday against the Celtics, and Isaiah Stewart (7/7/5/1/1 with one three-pointer) would likely be the next man up if Harris can’t play.

With the Clippers missing starters in each of the last two games, Miller has shown he can produce. He had 11 points, 10 rebounds and five assists in 34 minutes in the win over the Hornets on Wednesday. Miller followed that up with 20 points in 46 minutes in the overtime win over the Raptors on Friday. He might not be fantasy-relevant just yet, but Miller has certainly impressed over the last two games.

Zubac had 11 rebounds in Monday’s win over the Hornets, but only tallied nine points. The 28-year-old center completed a double-double with 16 points and 11 rebounds in Friday’s overtime win over the Raptors. He’s provided just 12th-round per game value over the last two weeks. The Clippers are off until Monday’s game against the Wizards on the road.

Harden led the Clippers to victory with Kawhi Leonard sidelined against the Raptors on Friday. The 36-year-old point guard had 16 points in the fourth quarter and overtime combined to help secure the victory on the road. He’s provided second-round per game value over the last two weeks. The Clippers will have the rest of the weekend off before a four-game week in Week 14.

Baldwin, the 28th overall pick in the 2022 draft, was on a two-way deal with the Clippers to end last season before being waived in July. He most recently played for the franchise’s G League affiliate. His return to the NBA gives the Clippers more flexibility with Kobe Sanders and Jordan Miller, both on two-way contracts. However, this transaction does not affect fantasy basketball.

Thompson appeared to tweak something in his knee early in the third quarter of Thursday’s game. While he never went back to the locker room, the Pistons’ wing did not check back into the game until about two minutes remained in the fourth quarter. Jaden Ivey (15 points, two rebounds, one assist and three three-pointers) and Ron Holland II (11 points, nine rebounds, one assist and one steal) picked up additional opportunities during the second half, and they may be the ones who benefit if Thompson’s injury were to be an issue.

Harris was one of four Pistons’ rotation players back in action after missing time due to injury, with Thursday’s game being his first since December 30. While he did miss both of his three-point attempts, the veteran forward shot 75 percent from two. Harris’ fantasy value has been limited this season, but he has been close to a top-100 player over the past month. It would be unsurprising if he continued to climb up the rankings as the season progresses.

Despite Thursday’s game being his first since December 30, Duren looked incredibly sharp. In recording his 19th double-double of the season, the Pistons’ center’s rebound tally was the most in a game for him since November 5 (22 vs. Utah). And Duren’s two blocks were one more than what he totaled in his previous four appearances. Isaiah Stewart was limited to 22 minutes off the bench, finishing with four points, four rebounds and two blocked shots, and his fantasy value takes a hit when the Pistons are whole.

Back in the Pistons’ lineup after missing two games with a right wrist contusion, Cunningham played with his hand taped up on Thursday. And that may have been an issue for the guard, who missed all seven of his three-point attempts. Cunningham was only slightly better inside the arc, and he had a rough night from the foul line. Even the 11 assists were accompanied by five turnovers. Cade will look to put forth a better effort on Saturday against the Pacers.

Konan Niederhauser added another nice stat line in what’s been a solid rookie season thus far for him in limited action. He went perfect from the floor and had several highlight-worthy finishes at the rim throughout the game to tie a career-high in points. The rookie center also erased shots on the defensive end and showed off his athleticism. He’s currently the third center in the Clippers’ rotation, so it’s unlikely he’ll have fantasy value aside from nights when one of Ivica Zubac or Brook Lopez is sidelined. Nonetheless, he had a productive night in his 23 minutes.

Harden struggled with his shooting efficiency against the Wizards, but utilized the free-throw line to finish as one of two Clippers with at least 20 points. The former league MVP also led the team in assists on the evening and protected the basketball fairly well in the process. Harden has quietly shot inefficiently in the majority of his appearances during January. If he can find his rhythm again as a scorer, he’d likely see an uptick in his overall offensive numbers, which would equate to better fantasy basketball production.

Leonard wasn’t his usual efficient self on Wednesday, but still played well enough to extend his streak of 20-point games to 22 games and record a second consecutive 30-point outing in the process. His scoring was mostly a result of efficient three-point shooting — he’s now tallied at least four triples in four consecutive games. The free-throw line was also a factor on this night, and as usual, the former two-time Defensive Player of the Year used his active hands to collect several steals. The Clippers have now won four straight games, and Leonard is playing at an All-Star level.

Leonard, who has been playing through a lingering ankle issue, was the primary reason the Clippers were able to erase a near 20-point deficit after stumbling out of the gate on the second night of a back-to-back. Los Angeles got off to a sluggish start, scoring just 14 points in the opening quarter, but it was Leonard who led the way in the second half, scoring 14 of his 26 points in the final two quarters. The 34-year-old superstar has provided first-round value on a per-game basis this season, averaging 27.8 points, 6.4 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 2.2 steals and 0.7 blocks through 28 games. The Clippers have three games on tap next week including matchups against the Hornets, Wizards and Raptors.

On a night where the Pistons were without Cade Cunningham (wrist), Isaiah Stewart (illness), Jalen Duren (ankle) and Tobias Harris (hip), Robinson went off for a season-high 20 first-half points, going 5-of-6 from three-point range to help Detroit open a 19-point lead at the break. Amazingly, he failed to score in the final two quarters, attempting just one shot during that span. The 31-year-old sharpshooter looked like he was on the verge of challenging his previous career-high mark of 34 points in the early stages of this one, but the Clippers put the clamps on him down the home stretch. The Eastern Conference-leading Pistons are off until Thursday when they host the Suns before closing out the week with a favorable matchup against the Pacers.

It’s taken longer than originally anticipated but the Clippers have finally started to figure out how to incorporate Collins into their offense as he’s scored 18 points or more in four of his last six games since January 1. The 28-year-old big man delivered an impressive all-around stat sheet stuffing performance in this one with eight stocks — five steals and three blocks — to help fuel Los Angeles’ second-half comeback.
