Bogdanović will miss a fourth straight game with a left hip contusion. While his absence does not affect fantasy basketball, it does leave the Clippers with one less option on the wing. Kobe Sanders played 17 minutes off the bench in Tuesday’s loss to the Lakers, and he may take on a similar workload on Friday. There’s no need to roster him in redraft leagues.

Due to back spasms, Isaac was a late scratch for Tuesday’s win over the 76ers. His return gives Orlando another option to call upon in the frontcourt, but he’s unlikely to provide the production needed to affect fantasy basketball.

After playing 26 minutes in his first game back from foot and ankle injuries that sidelined him for nearly three weeks, Leonard’s playing time received a slight bump on Tuesday. He finished a blocked shot shy of a complete stat line and is providing top-10 value in nine-cat formats. Production has not been Leonard’s issue, but availability has. With the Clippers ending Week 6 with a Friday/Saturday back-to-back, he’ll likely be on the sideline for one of those two games.

Offensively, Tuesday’s performance was Collins’s best since moving into the starting lineup on November 10. The 18 points were one shy of his season-high, and he ended a nasty streak in the assist category. His assist against the Lakers was the first for Collins since moving into the starting lineup, a stunning lack of production, even if he isn’t a point guard. Collins is still rostered in 77 percent of Yahoo! leagues, which is more about his reputation entering the season than his production. Hopefully, Tuesday’s performance will be the catalyst the veteran forward needs.

As expected, Harden once again led the way offensively for the Clippers. While all five starters finished in double figures, there were no other 20-point scorers as the Clippers fell to 5-13. The only negative for Harden right now is the turnover category. He recorded five turnovers on Tuesday and is averaging 3.8 per game on the season. However, despite that high number, he’s still providing first-round value in 12-team formats. The Clippers end Week 6 with a Friday/Saturday back-to-back.

Dunn’s night ended prematurely after he picked up two technical fouls following an altercation. He received his first for pushing the basketball into Luka Dončić’s chest, and a second for a mix-up with Jaxson Hayes. Hayes, who pushed Dunn from beyond after the Dončić incident, was assessed a technical foul. Dunn finished with 19 points (8-of-15 FGs), three assists, one steal and three three-pointers.

After a slow start to the season, Bane continues to make his way up the rankings. Over the past two weeks, he has provided top-50 value in nine-cat formats, and the season-long value is approaching top-100 status. Bane has recorded at least five assists in five straight games, and the improved production in that category is one reason why his overall fantasy value has improved.

Wagner didn’t have to extend himself too far on Tuesday, as the Magic were able to sit their key players for most of the second half. Over the past two weeks, he has been a sixth-round player in nine-cat formats, with the production being slightly lower than Wagner’s season-long value. While Franz’s season-long production hasn’t aligned with his Yahoo! ADP (36), he isn’t far off. Next up for Orlando is a matchup with the Pistons on Friday, with the winner advancing to the NBA Cup quarterfinals.

Orlando grabbed control of Tuesday’s game with a 51-point second quarter, and Black was in the middle of it all. He scored 27 points in the first half, establishing a career-high for points in a half. He would finish with his first career 30-point game and sat out most of the second half due to Orlando pushing its lead out to 46 points. Jalen Suggs, who was ejected late in the second quarter, should be available for Friday’s crucial NBA Cup matchup with the Pistons, so Black will come off the bench for that one.

Tuesday’s game will be the third Bogdanović has missed with a left hip contusion. Kobe Sanders and Cam Christie are two reserves whose minutes may increase with Bogdanović out, but neither is worth the risk in fantasy leagues, even on a three-game night.

With the Magic leading by an 82-58 margin, things got heated between the two teams. Philadelphia’s Andre Drummond and Orlando’s Wendell Carter Jr. squared up on each other, but they were separated before Suggs decided to get involved. For their roles in the altercation, Carter, Drummond, Orlando’s Desmond Bane and Philadelphia’s Jabari Walker received technical fouls, while Suggs was ejected. He finishes with four points, five rebounds, 11 assists, two steals and two blocked shots.

Carter is back after an ankle injury sidelined him for Sunday’s loss to the Celtics. Orlando Robinson, an emergency starter on Sunday as the Magic were also without Goga Bitadze, may fall out of the rotation entirely since the team’s top two centers are available. The other change is Suggs, whose return means Anthony Black will come off the bench. Da Silva continues to start in place of the injured Paolo Banchero and should be rostered in deep leagues.

Bogdanović has missed the Clippers’ last two games with a hip contusion, with his absence factoring into Kobe Sanders playing 28 minutes off the bench in Sunday’s loss to the Cavaliers.

After a modest showing in Saturday’s win over the Hornets, Zubac recorded one of his best stat lines of the season in Cleveland. He finished two rebounds shy of a 30/20 game while posting excellent percentages from the field and the foul line. Zubac did not record any defensive stats, but he began Sunday averaging 0.5 steals and 0.9 blocks per game, so that wasn’t too surprising. Averaging 31.5 minutes per game, Zubac is closing in on top-50 value in nine-cat formats after a relatively slow start to the season.

Sunday’s game was the first for Leonard since November 3, so no one was surprised that his minutes were limited. There was some concern when he went back to the locker room less than two minutes into the game, but Leonard was back on the court shortly thereafter and logged 27 minutes. If he’s hitting the high-20s in minutes despite the restriction, that’s good news for those who have Leonard rostered. The Clippers play three games during Week 6, but they have a Friday/Saturday back-to-back, so Kawhi may be limited to two appearances.

The Magic looked extremely sluggish on the second night of a back-to-back after a late arrival into Boston and playing without offensive catalyst Paolo Banchero for the sixth straight game while he continues recovering from a groin strain. Their struggles came mostly on the defensive end of the floor as they allowed the Celtics to shoot over 60 percent from the floor. Wagner took just 10 shots on the heels of a 37-point explosion during Saturday’s impressive win over the Knicks but managed to get to the line for eight free throw attempts to help salvage his night. The Magic have just two games this upcoming week with road matchups on tap against the 76ers and Pistons.

Bane was asked to shoulder an astronomical scoring workload once again on the second night of a back-to-back with superstar Paolo Banchero (groin) sidelined for the sixth straight contest. He wasn’t able to take advantage of Boston’s defensive issues in this one as he took just 13 shots before sitting out most of the second half after Orlando fell behind by nearly 30 points.

Howard was a one-man wrecking crew off the bench in the closing stages, fully capitalizing on extra run on the second night of a back-to-back. The 22-year-old former lottery pick drilled five triples on a career-high 13 attempts and astonishingly did most of his damage against Boston’s starters in crunch time. It came completely out of nowhere, too — his previous season high was just eight points.

In a brutal turn of events for fantasy managers who may have streamed him, Bitadze was scratched from the Magic starting lineup after the announced tip time. With Wendell Carter Jr. also out, the Magic turn to Orlando Robinson to fill the void.

Wagner propelled Orlando to its sixth win in seven games, drilling 13 of 19 shots and four of six from beyond the arc in one of his most efficient outings of the season. The 24-year-old playmaker has topped 25 points in four of his last six contests and once again took the lead role with Paolo Banchero sidelined for a fifth straight game due to a lingering groin issue. It’s an encouraging development for fantasy managers, as Wagner will remain the Magic’s primary offensive engine until Banchero returns — a streak that will reach six games on Sunday against the Celtics.

Bane and teammate Franz Wagner formed a devastating one-two punch early, combining for 38 first-half points and ultimately accounting for nearly half (64) of Orlando’s 133-point explosion. The only thing missing for Bane right now is his trademark three-point accuracy — he’s at 33.7 percent through 17 games in his Magic debut — but that feels more like a temporary glitch than a new reality for a sharpshooter who’s lived around 40 percent from deep his entire career.

Suggs’ defensive reputation remains his defining trait, but he cleared the 20-point mark for the second straight game and has now reached double figures in seven consecutive contests dating back to November 4.

Harden was magnificent as he took apart the Hornets offensively. The 36-year-old point guard made history with his 55-point effort, setting the Clippers’ franchise record. It was also Harden’s 25th 50-point game of his career, tying him with Kobe Bryant and trialing only Wilt Chamberlain and Michael Jordan. Harden’s 28.4 points per game this year is his best since 2020, when he won the scoring title. Kawhi Leonard is due back from injury on Sunday, but don’t expect Harden to slow down.

Paul is in his 21st season in the NBA.

Zubac only contributed in the points and rebounds categories, but fantasy managers will undoubtedly take the production. He’s up to nine double-doubles on the season, with Thursday’s 19 boards being a season-high. Due to the Clippers’ many injuries, Zubac and James Harden have been the team’s only reliable options for fantasy managers. The Clippers end Week 5 with a Saturday/Sunday back-to-back against the Hornets and Cavaliers, with the latter matchup setting up to be a challenging one for Zubac due to Cleveland’s tandem of Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen.

Zubac’s final stat line was modest, but the 7-footer did record his eighth double-double of the season on Monday. Six have been tallied over the last seven games, and just as crucial for fantasy managers is the playing time. During this seven-game stretch, Zubac has played an average of 34 minutes, even higher than his career-best mark of 32.8 last season. Brook Lopez, who was brought in to provide legitimate value as the backup center, hasn’t answered the call.

Harden had two opportunities to win the game in the final seconds, but both three-point attempts missed the mark. That may have been an appropriate conclusion to what was an inefficient and frustrating night for “The Beard.” Harden shot 2-of-12 from three and wasn’t much better inside the arc, shooting 28 percent overall. A perfect night at the foul line boosted the final point total, but he’s been asked to shoulder a heavy workload due to the Clippers’ injuries. Fantasy managers who have Harden rostered have to hope that he doesn’t get worn down.

Sanders made his first professional start on Monday and delivered solid offensive production. He shot just under 50 percent from the field and notched season-highs in points and three-pointers. While the production outside of those categories was lackluster, Sanders logged 30 minutes.

Sanders, a second-round pick out of Nevada who has averaged 13.8 minutes in five appearances, will fill the void on Monday. Given the rookie’s limited production thus far, fantasy managers will be better off adding Sanders to their watchlists instead of going “all in” immediately.
