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.

Lakers vs. Clippers Prediction, Odds, Picks - Feb. 20

Derrick Jones Jr. - Posts 22 points in narrow win Jones posted 22 points (7-15 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 6-7 FT), three rebounds and one assist across 34 minutes during Thursday's 115-114 win over Denver.

Impact Although Bennedict Mathurin's 38-point result was the biggest headline for the Clippers, Jones proved to be a valuable piece of the puzzle as the team moves forward without James Harden's services. Kriss Dunn lacks the necessary production to fill the scoring gap at point guard, so the Clippers will lean more on Jones and Mathurin while Kawhi Leonard takes the reins on offense. Jones is currently averaging a career-high 10.5 points per game this season, and that number could continue to rise due to the Clippers' needs on offense.

John Collins - Records third double-double Collins recorded 11 points (5-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt), 12 rebounds, four assists, three blocks and one steal across 32 minutes during Thursday's 115-114 win over Denver.

Impact Collins' rebound numbers have prevented him from reaching the double-double milestone this season. His current 2025-26 average of 5.2 rebounds per game marks his lowest in the category by a wide margin. There's a chance that Ivica Zubac's departure could give his results a slight boost, but Brook Lopez and Derrick Jones have fared well off the glass and could hinder Collins' chance for improvement.

Bennedict Mathurin - Explodes for 38 points in victory Mathurin ended Thursday's 115-114 victory over the Nuggets with 38 points (12-22 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 12-13 FT), five rebounds, four assists and three steals over 34 minutes.

Impact Mathurin gave a glimpse of his potential production with the Clippers before the All-Star break, but Thursday's line blew well past expectations. Filling the gap left by James Harden is no easy task, but if Mathurin's nightly shot volume stays high, the Clippers' overall outlook will improve dramatically. The former Pacer is playing off the bench, but he's averaging 30.3 minutes per game since joining the Clippers.
