Brook Lopez News, Rumors, Updates - LA Clippers

Hidden key to unlocking Brook Lopez was trading Ivica Zubac all along Though the Clippers wondered all season what it would take to unlock Brook Lopez, the answer has become clear: dealing Ivica Zubac.

Records double-double in loss Lopez accumulated 16 points (7-12 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), 10 rebounds, one assist, three blocks and two steals across 35 minutes during Friday's 125-122 loss to the Lakers.

Impact Lopez was forced to play a larger role on offense after John Collins (head) went down with an injury in the second quarter. Lopez recorded his third double-double of the season, and Ivica Zubac's departure should allow Lopez to hit the milestone more frequently.

Putting up decent numbers Lopez registered 15 points (6-10 FG, 3-7 3Pt), one rebound, three assists, two blocks and two steals over 37 minutes during Wednesday's 105-102 win over the Rockets.

Impact Fantasy managers can continue to treat Lopez as a low-end center option in the aftermath of the Ivica Zubac (ankle). Lopez has averaged 9.4 points, 3.2 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 1.6 blocks, 1.0 steals and 1.6 three-pointers in 30.4 minutes per game in his last five contests, shooting 42.1 percent from downtown.

Limited again despite start Lopez finished Tuesday's 102-95 loss to the Rockets with seven points (3-6 FG, 1-2 3Pt), two rebounds, one block and one steal across 29 minutes.

Impact Lopez scored no more than seven points for the third time in the past four games, all of which have been starts. With Ivica Zubac traded to Indiana, Lopez assumed the starting role immediately. However, outside of a strong performance against the Kings, Lopez has been unable to deliver standard league production. During that four-game stretch, he has averaged just 8.0 points, 3.8 rebounds and 1.5 blocks in 28.7 minutes per contest. At best, he should be viewed as a block streamer.

Falls just short of double-double Lopez ended with 15 points (5-12 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), nine rebounds, two assists, three blocks and one steal in 36 minutes during Friday's 114-111 victory over the Kings.

Impact Making his second start since Ivica Zubac was dealt to the Pacers, Lopez set a new season high in rebounds while posting his best scoring effort since a 31-point erupting in Portland on Dec. 26. The 37-year-old center may not have a whole lot left in the tank, but the Clippers will be counting on him to step up as part of the new supporting cast around Kawhi Leonard. Over nine starts this season, Lopez is averaging 10.1 points, 4.7 boards, 2.2 threes, 1.7 assists and 1.2 blocks in 25.8 minutes.

Clippers just made their thoughts on Brook Lopez impossible to ignore Following the trade of Ivica Zubac to the Indiana Pacers, it is clear what the LA Clippers think of their veteran big man, Brook Lopez.

Chips in 13 points off bench Lopez closed Monday's 128-113 loss to Philadelphia with 13 points (5-11 FG, 3-6 3Pt), one rebound, one assist and one block across 20 minutes.

Impact Lopez continues to provide some value in deep category-driven leagues, but his upside is capped as long as Ivica Zubac is healthy at center. Over his last six appearances, Lopez has averaged 8.0 points, 2.5 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 1.0 blocks and 1.7 three-pointers in 18.4 minutes per game.

FEBRUARY 3 • ROTOWIRE

Scores 10 points in win Lopez racked up 10 points (4-6 FG, 2-4 3Pt), two rebounds and two assists in 15 minutes during Thursday's 112-104 victory over the Lakers.

Impact Lopez scored in double figures for the eighth time this season and drilled multiple triples for the 13th time. The veteran big man has maintained a modest role off the bench for the Clippers this season, starting seven outings and exceeding 20 minutes in only 10 games. The 37-year-old is averaging 4.8 points, 2.3 rebounds, 1.0 threes, 0.9 assists and 0.9 blocks in 16.7 minutes over 12 games this month.

Records three blocks Tuesday Lopez contributed zero points (0-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt), one rebound and three blocks across 14 minutes during Tuesday's 138-110 loss to the Bulls.

Impact Lopez added three blocks in the loss, although that's really where the good news ends. With Ivica Zubac now healthy, Lopez is playing a modest role off the bench, providing no value outside of the shot-blocking. At best, he can be considered for streaming purposes, although even that might be a stretch at this point.

Bench role Friday Lopez is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Raptors, NBA writer Justin Russo reports.

Impact Lopez drew a spot start Wednesday with Ivica Zubac (ankle) sidelined but will return to a reserve role now that Zubac is healthy. In his past five games off the bench, Lopez is averaging 3.6 points, 3.0 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.0 blocks in 16.8 minutes per contest.

Starting Wednesday Lopez is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's matchup with the Wizards, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.

Impact Ivica Zubac is sitting out Wednesday's game with an ankle injury, which will result in Lopez drawing the spot-start. Lopez has been inconsistent as a starter this season with averages of 10.0 points, 4.5 rebounds, 2.7 triples and 1.2 blocks per contest, but with a favorable matchup against the Wizards, he's someone to consider as a streamer.

JANUARY 15 • ROTOWIRE

Rough night Saturday Lopez posted zero points (0-4 FG, 0-4 3Pt) and three rebounds in 12 minutes during Saturday's 98-92 win over the Pistons.

Impact Lopez turned into a pumpkin, offering nothing in his 12 minutes. Even when Ivica Zubac was sidelined, Lopez was nothing more than a stream option, as his impact on a basketball court continues to decline. The end could be nearer than we think for Lopez, currently averaging 6.3 points and 1.0 blocks in 16.9 minutes per game.

Not starting Monday Lopez won't start against the Warriors on Monday, NBA writer Justin Russo reports.

Impact With Ivica Zubac back in the starting five, Lopez will slide to the second unit. Over 21 appearances off the bench this season, the veteran center has averaged 6.0 points and 2.0 rebounds in 14.7 minutes per contest.

Miserable showing Thursday Lopez accumulated three points (1-12 FG, 1-12 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 20 minutes during Thursday's 118-101 victory over the Jazz.

Impact It was a dreadful shooting display by Lopez, who saw fewer minutes than Yanic Konan Niederhauser on Thursday. Lopez should remain the top center while Ivica Zubac (ankle) is on the shelf, but it appears head coach Tyronn Lue is comfortable riding a hot-hand approach when applicable. Lopez has averaged 10.8 points, 5.2 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 1.4 blocks in 27.8 minutes per game in his last five outings (all starts).

Logs career high in win Lopez recorded 31 points (9-16 FG, 9-14 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, two blocks and one assist across 33 minutes during Friday's 119-103 victory over Portland.

Impact With Ivica Zubac (ankle) sidelined, Lopez got the starting nod for a second consecutive contest and made the most of the opportunity. The veteran center torched the nets from beyond the arc, sinking a career-high nine triples en route to a season-best mark in points. Lopez fell out of the rotation in late November and early December, though he carries solid short-term value as a member of the starting five and will aim to prove he can remain a steady producer when Zubac, who is expected to miss at least two more weeks, returns.
