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.

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. He’s supplied first-round fantasy value over the past two weeks, averaging 17.6 points, 6.1 boards, 0.4 assists, 1.3 steals and 2.1 blocks over his last seven games.

Harden did most of his damage in the second half, scoring 14 of his 19 points in the final two quarters, after Los Angeles got off to an agonizingly slow start in this road matchup. The managed to salvage an abysmal shooting performance on the second night of a back-to-back by getting to the line a whopping 11 times. It’s been another vintage Harden season so far as he’s averaging 25.6 points, 4.8 rebounds, 7.9 assists, 1.3 steals and 0.3 blocks through 35 games.

For the third straight time, Leonard will be available for both games of a Clippers back-to-back. While Jordan Miller misses out on a chance to start, he may play a bit more if the Clippers look to manage Leonard’s playing time.

After scoring 26 points on Friday, Leonard will be questionable for the second leg of the Clippers’ back-to-back. Kawhi has played in their last two back-to-backs, and if he is unavailable for this game, Jordan Miller has a good chance to start after scoring 21 points in 27 minutes on Friday.

There were few positive takeaways for the rebuilding Wizards at the outset of the Trae Young era as they gave up 128 points on the defensive end of the floor and shot just 42.5 percent on the night. The 20-year-old big man has been extremely impactful for fantasy purposes this season, averaging 17.2 points, 7.5 assists, 3.0 assists, 0.8 steals and 2.3 blocks through 28 games. The Wizards close out the week with a road tilt against the Suns on Sunday evening.

Leonard played through a sprained ankle and had 26 points and four threes in the win over the Nets on Friday. The season is slipping away for the Clippers at 14-23, 11th in the Western Conference. Leonard’s availability for Saturday’s game against the Pistons could be in question as he’s dealing with the ankle injury and it’s the second night of a back-to-back.

Harden put the Clippers on his back Friday, leading the team with 31 points. The 36-year-old point guard impressively and effortlessly carved up the Nets defense, shooting 10-of-13 from the field. That will help make up for his 6-of-17 game against the Knicks earlier this week. Harden is 18th-overall in per game value this year. The Clippers will be in Detroit Saturday as they take on the Pistons on the second night of a back-to-back.

George and Middleton are back after not being available for Wednesday’s loss to the 76ers. Their returns mean that Bub Carrington and Justin Champagnie will come off the bench, lowering the fantasy ceilings of both players.

Initially questionable for Friday’s game, Leonard is good to go. Given the matchup, this could be a big night for the Clippers’ forward, provided his ankle doesn’t give him any trouble.

George is back after missing Washington’s last seven games with a strained left hip flexor. With the Wizards having traded CJ McCollum to the Hawks on Wednesday, they may start George and Tre Johnson together on Friday. Johnson has been Kyshawn’s replacement in the starting lineup.

Leonard is dealing with a sprained right ankle, but it was the left foot and ankle that kept him out of the lineup for ten games in November. He hasn’t missed a game since, but Friday’s game is the first of two in as many nights for the Clippers, who visit the Pistons on Saturday. If Leonard sits out the matchup with Brooklyn, Kobe Sanders could be called on to make his second spot start of the week. He scored a career-high 20 in Monday’s win over the Warriors, filling in for James Harden.

Robbins claims that “the plan is for [Young] to rehab his ankle in-house” and take his time returning to the court. The Wizards then anticipate Young picking up his $49 million player option for 2026, at which time they will see how well he fits alongside young players like Alex Sarr and Kyshawn George. Slow-playing Young this season makes sense, considering the Wizards’ first-round pick is top-eight-protected. That means that, if the Wizards lose enough games to pick inside the top eight in the 2026 NBA Draft, they will keep their pick, but if they pick outside of the top eight, the New York Knicks will control the rights to the Wizards’ pick.

While he was not on track to duplicate his 55-point effort against the Pistons on December 28, Leonard started very well on Wednesday. He scored 21 first-half points, likely causing many fantasy managers to envision another big night for the Clippers forward. Leonard would only score four points after halftime, shooting 2-of-7 from the field. While some of his teammates knocked down shots in the third quarter, Leonard’s failure to score in the fourth quarter helped the Clippers fall off the pace. Friday’s matchup with the Nets looks like a good one for Leonard to bounce back from a disappointing second half at MSG.

After attempting three shots from the field in his return to the starting lineup on Monday, Zubac was far more involved on Wednesday. The 14 attempts were the most he’s had in a game since December 11 (six games played), and Zubac finished with his first double-double with at least 20 points since November 23. With Zubac playing starters’ minutes, now is the time for the few who still have Brook Lopez rostered to move on. He played 16 minutes off the bench on Wednesday, finishing with six points (2-of-8 FGs), one block and two three-pointers.

Back in the lineup after sitting out Monday’s win over the Warriors, Harden got back on track with his three-point shot in New York. After shooting 1-of-6 from three in each of his previous three games, The Beard made four of his seven attempts against the Knicks. Unfortunately for Harden and those who have him rostered, he was 2-of-10 from two. While the overall stat line was solid, the field-goal percentage took a hit in Harden’s first game of Week 12.

With CJ McCollum (quad) sidelined for the first time this season, Carrington entered the starting unit for Washington. It seems likely that he’ll get at least one more start on Friday against the Pelicans since the Wizards traded for Trae Young and shipped out McCollum right after the game ended. Young had been dealing with a quad injury, so Carrington should start until he is available to make his debut for the Wizards, giving him limited streaming value.

Rumors had been heating up, and now it’s official. Young will head to Washington after appearing in just 10 games during his eighth season with the Hawks. Young will be reunited with Travis Schlenk, who drafted Trae in 2018 and is now an executive with the Wizards. The Wizards will have the rest of this season and, assuming he opts into his contract for next year, all of next season to decide if they want to keep Young around. It was a low-cost move for Washington, and they added a former All-NBA player that led the NBA in assists last season. If they’re able to add another top pick in the draft this season, the Wizards will have one of the best young cores in the NBA and a star point guard to help facilitate things on offense. Plus, Washington has enough length to make up for Young’s defensive limitations. Trae has been sidelined recently with a quad injury, but that could certainly heal up quickly now that he’s on a new team.

Between injuries and subpar performances, it was a rough start to the season for Coulibaly. However, this recent stretch has been a productive one. He wasn’t able to contribute any defensive stats, which has inflated his recent value, but he was able to have a solid night on offense. He’s known for his defense, but any consistency on offense will help him be even more valuable for fantasy managers, which makes his recent games encouraging.

After having his lowest-scoring game as a starter on Tuesday, Johnson responded with a strong outing on the second night of the back-to-back. This was the second 20-point game of his rookie season, with the other also coming during the seven games since he moved back into the starting lineup. Johnson has flashed plenty of upside as a rookie, mostly as a scorer and shooter, though his production in standard fantasy leagues has been limited this season.
