Kawhi Leonard - Questionable to play Sunday Leonard (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Magic.
Impact Leonard exited Friday's game against the Lakers due to left ankle soreness, and the same issue has him questionable for this contest. The Clippers will be cautious with him, but a final call on the star forward's status will be made closer to Sunday's 9 p.m. ET tipoff. Leonard is averaging 28.4 points, 7.1 rebounds, 4.3 assists and 1.7 steals per game since the beginning of February.

John Collins - Won't play Sunday Collins has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Magic due to a head laceration and neck soreness.
Impact Collins sustained the head and neck injuries during Friday's loss to the Lakers and won't suit up Sunday. His next opportunity to play will come Thursday against Minnesota. In the meantime, Bennedict Mathurin and Nicolas Batum are candidates for increased roles, while Kobe Sanders could rejoin the rotation.

Brook Lopez - 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.

Bennedict Mathurin - Continues strong production in loss Mathurin had 26 points (7-16 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 11-14 FT), seven rebounds and two assists in 32 minutes before fouling out of Friday's 125-122 loss to the Lakers.
Impact Mathurin kept the good vibes going after blowing up for 38 points against the Nuggets Thursday evening. The Clippers lost Kawhi Leonard (ankle) and John Collins (head) during Friday's loss, and opportunities should increase dramatically for the former Pacer if the injuries force extended absences in the first unit.

Kawhi Leonard - Exits game Friday Leonard (ankle) will not return to Friday's game against the Lakers, per Law Murray of The Athletic.
Impact Prior to existing Friday's contest, Leonard was putting together another strong performance, totaling 31 points (11-19 FG, 4-6 3pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds and five assists. This soreness affects his left ankle so it is unrelated to the ankle issue he had earlier this season. His status will be closely monitored ahead of the Clippers' next game on Sunday against the Magic.

Impact Collins went up for a lob pass but was fouled and ended up hitting his head on the floor late in the second quarter. He was initially considered questionable to return but never checked back in. The big man's next opportunity to play will come Sunday against the Magic. If Collins is forced to miss additional time, Nicolas Batum and Bennedict Mathurin would likely see increased minutes, while Kobe Sanders could enter the rotation.

Kobe Sanders - Exits rotation Thursday Sanders (coach's decision) went unused off the bench in Thursday's 115-114 win over the Nuggets.
Impact Though the Clippers upgraded him from a two-way contract to a standard deal over the All-Star break, Sanders ended up dropping out of the rotation for the first time since Nov. 10, ending a streak of 44 consecutive appearances. With Derrick Jones recently returning from an extended injury-related absence and with the Clippers bringing aboard Bennedict Mathurin at the trade deadline to bolster their depth on the wing, Sanders looks like he could be the odd man out of head coach Tyronn Lue's nine-man rotation. Sanders may at least temporarily reclaim a role on the second unit for Friday's game against the Lakers, as veteran Nicolas Batum (18 minutes Thursday) could be a candidate to rest for the second leg of a back-to-back set.

Nicolas Batum - Plays 18 minutes in win Batum produced six points (2-3 FG, 2-3 3Pt) and two rebounds in 18 minutes during Thursday's 115-114 win over the Nuggets.
Impact Batum was rested for the final game before the All-Star break, but he was back in his usual role Thursday. The veteran is unlikely to see enough minutes or usage to make an impact outside of very deep formats moving forward.
