Luke Kennard News, Rumors, Updates - Los Angeles Lakers

Struggles with shot in loss Kennard contributed three points (1-7 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 0-1 FT), three rebounds and one assist in 23 minutes during Sunday's 99-98 victory over Houston.

Impact Kennard's numbers continue to trend down after his 25 -point tour-de-force 10 days ago against Houston, where he converted an eye-popping 8-of-9 three-point attempts. The rematch against Houston was a taler of opposites, as he failed to make much of an impact in the Clippers' offense.

Scores 18 off bench Kennard had 18 points (6-9 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one steal across 34 minutes during Friday's 105-102 win over the Lakers.

Impact It was a balanced effort by the Clippers, who had seven players score in double figures. Kennard was the high man off the bench, drilling five three-pointers and finishing as a plus-7 in his 34 minutes of action. When the Clippers acquired Norman Powell (foot) from Portland, it looked like Kennard's role would shrink, but with Powell sidelined, he's played 34, 23, 24, 19 and 28 minutes over his last five games, respectively.

NBA All-Star Game, MVP, Slam Dunk, 3-Point Contest odds, results

Here's a recap of how NBA All-Star Weekend played out.

NBA All-Star Game, MVP, Slam Dunk, 3-Point Contest odds, results

Loses in final round Saturday Kennard lost against Karl-Anthony Towns in the final round of the Three-Point Contest on Saturday.

Impact Kennard is widely known as one of the best shooters in the league and came close to winning this event, but Towns was more efficient in the final round and secured the victory. Kennard left his money ball rack at the end, but he missed the two three-point shots from deep and that came back to haunt him. Losing this event shouldn't take anything away from Kennard and his status as one of the best shooters in the league, though. He's hitting 44.8 percent of his treys this season.

Solid numbers in bench role Kennard (ankle) tallied 11 points (4-8 FG, 3-4 3Pt), four rebounds, four assists and one steal across 24 minutes Tuesday in the Clippers' 103-96 loss to the Suns.

Impact Kennard turned in a serviceable line in his return from a one-game absence, but his addition only further muddles the Clippers' ever-changing wing and forward rotation. Even with Norman Powell (foot) out indefinitely, the minutes and production from the likes of Kennard, Terance Mann, Amir Coffey, Robert Covington and Nicolas Batum are likely to remain highly volatile from game to game.

Available Tuesday Kennard (ankle) is available for Tuesday's game against the Suns, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.

Impact Kennard returns from a one-game absence due to left ankle soreness. This month, he's averaging 6.6 points, 2.6 rebounds and 2.6 assists in 22.6 minutes.

FEBRUARY 16, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable for Tuesday's contest Kennard (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's contest against the Suns, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.

Impact Kennard missed his first game since Jan. 17 during the first half of the Clippers' back-to-back set Monday and is listed as questionable again for the second half. If he's unable to suit up, Brandon Boston, Amir Coffey and Rodney Hood are all candidates for increased roles.

Won't go Monday Kennard (ankle) won't play in Monday's game against Golden State, Ohm Youngmisuk of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Kennard will miss his first game since Jan. 17, this time due to a left ankle injury. Brandon Boston, Amir Coffey and Rodney Hood could all see an uptick in minutes in Kennard's absence.

FEBRUARY 15, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable Monday Kennard is questionable for Monday's game against the Warriors due to left ankle soreness, Andrew Greif of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Impact Kennard has had a limited impact in each of the last four matchups, as he's averaged 5.8 points, 2.8 rebounds and 2.5 assists in 21.0 minutes per game during that time. If he's unavailable Monday, Brandon Boston, Amir Coffey and Rodney Hood should see additional playing time.

FEBRUARY 14, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Quiet in 19 minutes Kennard accumulated five points (2-4 FG, 1-3 3Pt), two rebounds and one assist across 19 minutes during Saturday's 99-97 win over the Mavericks.

Impact At the end of January, Kennard had strung together six straight impressive games, but he's since fallen off a cliff and is no longer an appealing wavier-wire add. With Norman Powell (toe) sidelined Saturday, it's not a great sign that Kennard saw only 19 minutes, though he did pick up four personals. Either way, when Powell is healthy, Kennard should remain in a relatively reduced role.
