Ruled out for Sunday's game Covington has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Pelicans and has been placed in the league's health and safety protocols, Broderick Turner of the Los Angeles Times repor...

Impact Covington had been listed as doubtful due to illness earlier Saturday, and his placement in the health and safety protocols suggests he's likely to have contracted COVID-19. If that's the case, then he's expected to miss at least a couple of games. With Covington and Kawhi Leonard (knee) out, Marcus Morris will have to handle a big workload at the power forward position in the short-term future.

Doubtful vs. Pels Covington is doubtful due to an illness Sunday against the Pelicans, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.

Impact Kawhi Leonard (knee) has already been ruled out, and with Covington presumed out, the Clippers will be shorthanded at forward. However, Marcus Morris will at least be back.

Irrelevant in loss Covington racked up three points (1-5 FG, 1-4 3Pt) and four rebounds across 14 minutes during Sunday's 112-95 loss to the Suns.

Impact Covington's usage has fallen off a cliff, as he finds himself towards the back of a deep Clippers. Covington remains a valuable defensive chess piece for Los Angeles, but right now he's not seeing enough minutes to justify starting in most fantasy leagues.

Quielty productive in loss Sunday Covington managed 11 points (4-8 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, two assists and two blocks in 24 minutes during Sunday's preseason loss to Minnesota.

Impact While Covington is far from the elite source of steals and blocks that he once was, he still has the ability to contribute on both ends of the floor. His role is likely to take a hit with the return of Kawhi Leonard and a healthy Paul George, making him merely a late-round target for anyone in need of defensive contributions.

Report: LA Clippers Re-Sign Robert Covington The Clippers are bringing Robert Covington back on a 2-year / $24M deal

MAY 6, 2022 • STAR-TELEGRAM.COM

Inks two-year extension Covington and the Clippers agreed Thursday to a two-year, $24 million extension, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Impact Covington was dealt from the Trail Blazers to the Clippers in early February. With LA, he averaged 10.5 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.2 steals, 1.1 blocks and 1.0 assists in 22.4 minutes. It's a bit unclear what his role will be when Paul George and Kawhi Leonard (knee) are both healthy next season, though Leonard is practically a lock to miss time.

Solid production off bench Covington contributed 14 points (4-7 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-5 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one steal across 35 minutes during Friday's 105-101 loss to the Pelicans.

Impact Covington saw increased playing time in the second half as the Clippers opted to run with a small-ball unit to open the third quarter. The veteran forward made the most of his opportunity by scoring in double figures for the third time over seven appearances in April. Across the Clippers' two play-in games, Covington averaged 11.5 points and 4.0 rebounds in 26.5 minutes per game.
