Kris Dunn News, Rumors, Updates - LA Clippers

In line to play Wednesday Dunn (rest) is expected to play in Wednesday's regular-season opener against the Kings.

Impact Dunn sat out Los Angeles' preseason finale but should be back in action Wednesday. The veteran guard started 68 of his 82 regular-season appearances in 2025-26, though he isn't guaranteed a starting role to begin the 2026-27 season.

Resting Wednesday Dunn (rest) has been ruled out for Wednesday's preseason game against the Nuggets, independent Clippers reporter Joey Linn reports.

Impact After appearing in each of the Clippers' first two preseason games, Dunn will be sidelined Wednesday for rest purposes. The veteran guard's next chance to suit up will come in the club's regular-season opener Oct. 21 against the Kings, when he could see an elevated role with Bradley Beal (knee) ruled out for Opening Night.

Minor role in preseason Dunn recorded three points (1-2 FG, 1-2 3Pt), one rebound, one steal and one block in six minutes off the bench during Sunday's 104-101 preseason win over Golden State.

Impact Dunn saw only six minutes while Darius Garland handled the bulk of the point-guard duties with the first unit. However, Max Strus exited with an injury after starting at shooting guard, potentially opening additional opportunities for Dunn as the Clippers work through several early-season injuries.

Role threatened by Wagler Dunn could be at risk of handling a reserve role in 2026-27 due to the selection of Keaton Wagler in Tuesday's draft.

Impact Dunn might be a loser from a fantasy perspective of the Clippers adding Wagler, who would likely supplant Dunn from the first unit at shooting guard if he wins a starting job this offseason. The defensive-minded Dunn was essentially a full-time starter last regular season, making 68 starts over 82 games, so his status as the incumbent veteran could also work in his favor if Wagler struggles in the Summer League or during training camp.

Another two-steal performance Dunn produced two points (1-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and two steals across 21 minutes during Friday's 114-113 victory over Indiana.

Impact Dun continues to produce on the defensive end, having now recorded at least two steals in five straight games. However, the rest of his numbers have been less than ideal, averaging just 4.2 points and 3.2 assists per game during that span. As has been the case for the majority of his career, Dunn should be considered nothing more than a steals specialist.

Impact Dunn's time as a viable fantasy contributor may be running out soon, as Darius Garland returned to action and will be the starter at point guard once he reaches 100 percent. Fantasy managers who depend on Dunn's production will need to pivot quickly, as productive nights from Dunn could be limited to upcoming back-to-backs.
