Provides spark off bench Sanders logged 17 points (5-6 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 5-5 FT), three rebounds, four assists and one steal across 27 minutes during Wednesday's 115-92 win over the Hawks.

Impact With Chris Paul off the roster and Bradley Beal (hip) done for the year, Sanders should remain on fantasy watchlists in deep leagues moving forward. The rookie second-rounder averaged 8.6 points, 2.1 rebounds and 1.6 assists in 23.0 minutes per tilt in his last 10 games.

Drops 10 off bench Sanders finished Monday's 140-123 loss to the Heat with 10 points (4-11 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and two assists across 26 minutes.

Impact While Sanders is on a two-way contract with the Clippers, he has appeared in 11 straight games and has become a key player off the bench out of necessity, averaging 7.4 points, 1.8 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 0.5 steals and 0.2 blocks in that span. Sanders led the second unit in minutes Monday, and may elevate himself to be the first man off the bench if he continues his strong play.

Not starting Sunday Sanders won't start Sunday's game against the Cavaliers.

Impact With Kawhi Leonard returning from a 10-game absence due to a sprained right foot and ankle, Sanders will slide to the second unit. However, the rookie second-rounder is still likely to see meaningful minutes due to Bogdan Bogdanovic (hip), Derrick Jones (knee) and Bradley Beal (hip) being out. Over his last five games (three starts), Sanders has averaged 9.6 points and 2.2 rebounds in 24.8 minutes per contest.

Impact Sanders was promoted to the starting lineup, replacing Derrick Jones, who is set to miss multiple weeks due to a knee injury. Sanders responded by scoring a career-high 17 points, rewarding anyone who took a chance on him.

To join starting lineup Monday Sanders will be in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the 76ers, Lauren Rosen of FanDuel Sports Network SoCal reports.

Impact Derrick Jones is set to be sidelined for about six weeks with an MCL sprain, clearing up a spot in the first unit for Sanders. It's unclear if this is a long-term move, but it's encouraging for Sanders' fantasy value. Ahead of what will be his first career start, the rookie second-rounder has averaged 5.0 points, 1.8 rebounds and 1.4 assists in 13.8 minutes per contest over five games this season.

Drops 11 off bench Sanders provided 11 points (4-7 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one steal across 23 minutes during Sunday's 121-118 loss to Boston.

Impact After missing eight games due to a knee injury, Sanders has immediately stepped into a larger role with the absence of Kawhi Leonard (ankle/foot), averaging 20.3 minutes over his last three games after playing in just nine total minutes in his first two games. Sanders will likely remain in the rotation until Leonard is cleared to return.
