Wed Dec 15 202120:35Nicolas Batum And Paul George Remain Out Wednesday
Los Angeles Clippers wings Nicolas Batum (ankle) and Paul George (elbow) will continue to sit Wednesday against the Utah Jazz. Batum and George were questionable yet again, but continue to sit with their respective ailments. Terance Mann and Luke Kennard should continue to start and be viable streamers while Batum and George remain out. Isaiah Hartenstein is also worth a look as he carves out a solid role off the bench.

Tue Dec 14 202119:56Paul George Tagged As Questionable For Wednesday
Los Angeles Clippers forward Paul George (elbow) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Denver Nuggets. He is approaching one week on the sidelines due to a right elbow sprain. Reggie Jackson and Marcus Morris Sr. appear to be the two players who would benefit the most. Although, Terance Mann and Luke Kennard are getting more chances as well. Kennard has been playing well lately and is worth streaming in the short terms until George returns.

Mon Dec 13 202120:51Paul George and Nicolas Batum Out Against Phoenix
Los Angeles Clippers forwards Paul George (elbow) and Nicolas Batum (ankle) will sit Monday against the Phoenix Suns. George will miss his third straight game with a right elbow sprain and does not look very close to returning given his doubtful tag. Batum can't catch a break either as he will miss his second straight with an ankle sprain after returning from a lengthy absence due to the health and safety protocols. Luke Kennard and Terrance Mann will start on Monday and both are intriguing streamers while Batum and George remain out.

Wed Dec 8 202119:04Paul George Could Miss Wednesday's Contest
Los Angeles Clippers forward Paul George (elbow) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Boston Celtics. The All-Star forward is a late addition to the injury report. It's the same elbow that George had issues with years ago, but fantasy managers shouldn't be too concerned. The Clippers might have George sit as a precaution, but it shouldn't be a multiple game absence. Terance Mann, Amir Coffey and Brandon Boston Jr. would see more minutes without George available. Fantasy managers should check back closer to tip-off for more information.

Wed Dec 1 202120:04Paul George, Nicolas Batum Out For Wednesday’s Game
Los Angeles Clippers small forward Paul George (rest) and power forward Nicolas Batum will be unavailable for Wednesday's contest against Sacramento. George's absence marks his first of the season, yet it comes at a curious time with the Clippers set for a weekend back-to-back vs. the Lakers and Kings on Friday and Saturday, respectively. In addition to averaging a gaudy stat line of 25.9 points, 7.3 boards and 5.1 assists on a nightly basis, George's 22 field-goal attempts per game leads the league. With that in mind, all healthy Clippers will garner added DFS appeal Wednesday, as there will ample shots to go around. Batum remains in the league's health and safety protocols, and when he might return is unknown.

Tue Nov 30 202109:51Paul George Continues To Rack Up Turnovers
Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Paul George had a good 27-point effort on 10-for-20 shooting in Monday's loss to New Orleans, but he also registered seven turnovers. He's now had 15 turnovers in total across his last two games. George was 3-for-10 with the three-ball Monday night and his line included three rebounds, three assists and one steal. With two meetings against Sacramento coming up, George is set for a big week, but he'll hopefully sort out his ball-handling in the upcoming games.

Sun Nov 28 202119:11Paul George Returns To Form With A 30-Point Effort
Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Paul George produced a good bounce-back performance, at least scoring-wise, on Sunday against the Warriors, recording a team-high 30 points on 11-for-24 shooting in a 105-90 loss. He shot 3-for-7 from outside and had five rebounds and five assists but also ended up matching his career high with eight turnovers. George had been limited to just 12 points in his previous outing against Detroit. The Warriors have been immense on the defensive end this season, so this was far from an easy matchup for George, but he still ended up delivering his sixth 30-point performance of the season. The next matchups against New Orleans and Sacramento are much more favorable spots to perform, as both teams sit in the bottom-five in defensive efficiency.

Sun Nov 21 202119:35Paul George Goes For 29 Points In Sunday's Win
Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Paul George had a game-high 29 points on 12-for-25 shooting as the team took down Dallas 97-91 on Sunday. He nailed three triples with eight attempts and tallied four rebounds and six assists with one steal and six turnovers in 38 minutes. The turnovers were an ugly sight, but George had thrown away the ball just twice in his previous two games, so we can let it slide. He's a usage monster this season in L.A., with Kawhi Leonard (knee) on the shelf, and these things happen. PG13 can shine against the Mavs again on Tuesday and will then find himself in a very good spot to perform versus Detroit on Friday.

Fri Nov 19 202108:28Paul George Has 23 Points With Five Triples
Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Paul George had a 23-point performance in Thursday's loss to the Grizzlies, shooting a nice 5-for-9 from downtown and 9-for-18 overall from the field. He led the team in scoring and in assists, handing out six dimes. PG13 also collected five rebounds and swatted away one shot in 31 minutes on the floor. This was a very efficient performance from George, but sadly the Clippers couldn't hang with Memphis and thus we didn't get to see George going off. However, he should now be pretty fresh for Friday's very favorable matchup against the Pelicans, who have by far the worst defensive efficiency in the league.

Wed Nov 17 202104:57Paul George Gets To The Free-Throw Line 13 Times
In a 106-92 win over San Antonio, Clippers forward Paul George led his team to score 34 points. In 34 minutes, he also added nine rebounds, four assists, two steals, and two three-pointers. The All-NBA talent only shot 10-for-24 from the field and 2-for-9 from deep, but he got to the line 13 times. In addition, he made 12 of his 13 free throws, and it marks the third time in seven games he drew double-digit freebies. If he can combine that aggression with the shot-making ability, the ceiling is there for PG13 to grab the No. 1 spot in fantasy. He's sixth right now, so managers shouldn't complain, but it does feel like there is room for George to go even higher in the 2021-22 campaign.

Mon Nov 15 202109:22Paul George Leads Team In Points And Rebounds
Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Paul George led the team with 27 points and 11 rebounds in Sunday's 100-90 home loss against the Bulls, going 7-for-25 from the field and 11-for-11 at the line. He added four assists to his tally with one steal, one block and three turnovers in 41 minutes. PG13 shot bricks all night here and ended up going 2-for-10 with the three-ball. It's a minor miracle how he got to 20-plus points. Efficiency has been a problem for George all month, and he's now shooting below 42 percent from the field for November. He has a pair of great matchups to look for form this week against Memphis and New Orleans, but Tuesday's meeting with the Spurs could bring more frustration for George. San Antonio has done well defensively this season and George averaged just 20.5 points against them last season with 39 percent shooting.

Mon Nov 8 202105:39Paul George Does It All In Comeback Win
Los Angeles Clippers forward Paul George spurred his team to a comeback victory over the Charlotte Hornets on Sunday. Across 38 minutes, George added 20 points, nine rebounds, eight assists, two three-pointers, and a block as he just fell shy of his fifth double-double this year. The 20 points were his lowest scoring output since Oct. 28, but he made up for it with his contributions in the other categories. PG13 is a high-usage, high-minutes stud for fantasy and is a lock to be a top-five player moving forward. The Clippers play four games this week against some struggling defenses, so George will be a fantastic option in DFS as well.

Sat Nov 6 202111:34Paul George Posts 21-11-6 Line On Friday
Los Angeles Clippers shooting guard/small forward Paul George had a rough shooting night in the team's victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves on Friday. He went 4-for-20 from the field in the game, including 0-for-7 from three-point range. However, he managed to reach the free throw line consistently in the game and he knocked down 13 of his 14 attempts from the strike. Apart from his inefficient shooting and six turnovers, he wound up with a solid game overall, compiling 21 points, 11 rebounds, six assists and three steals. His usage has been through the roof so far this year and he's currently second in the league in scoring, averaging 27.9 points per game.

Thu Nov 4 202108:52Paul George Stays Hot Wednesday Night
Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Paul George led the charge on Wednesday with 32 points on 11-for-18 shooting as the team scored a season-high 126 points in a road win over Minnesota. He was 4-for-8 from downtown and 6-for-6 at the line with six rebounds, eight assists, one steal and one block. It was a great night for PG13, although he hurt his fantasy line with eight turnovers in 36 minutes. George has been giving defenders major headaches in recent games, averaging 35.3 points a night in his last three outings. He has a chance to shine against Minnesota again on Friday before taking on Charlotte and Portland. The Clippers will meet a couple of poor defenses in these matchups and the matchup with the Hornets is also a very good pace-up spot.

Tue Nov 2 202110:12Paul George Leads Clippers To Win With Second-Half Explosion
Los Angeles Clippers forward Paul George led his team to a win over the Thunder on Monday night. George got off to a rough, 1-for-9 start from the field but exploded for 27 points in the second half, including two late threes to seal the victory over his former team. The two-way star finished the night with 32 points, nine rebounds, seven assists, five threes, and three steals in 40 minutes. George looks poised to make a run at the MVP award in a massive usage role with Kawhi Leonard (knee) sidelined, so fantasy managers can set it and forget it when it comes to PG13.

Sat Oct 30 202108:45Paul George Explodes For Season-High 42 Points And Six Threes
Los Angeles Clippers forward Paul George scored 42 of his team's 92 points in Friday's loss to the Trail Blazers. George's season-high scoring effort saw him shoot 15-for-24 from the field and 6 of 9 from deep, as the triples were also a season-high. The 31-year-old forward added eight rebounds, two assists, a block, and a steal in 34 minutes of action. George owns the league's fourth-highest usage rate sans Kawhi Leonard and should continue to pace the Clippers in most counting stats as by far their best player. George will get a chance for revenge against his former team, the Thunder, on Monday.

He still managed to compile a decent all-around stat line as he racked up 12 points, 10 rebounds, four steals and an assist. George's usage rate has been way up so far this year. He's averaging 21.0 field goal attempts per game, a significant increase from last year (17.6). He's also been a menace on the defensive end with 16 steals in four games. His next game will be a matchup against the Portland Trail Blazers on Friday.

Sun Oct 24 202109:03Paul George Racks Up 41 Points In Losing Effort
Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Paul George hit five treys with 12 attempts and recorded a game-high 41 points in a 120-114 loss to Memphis on Saturday. He was 15-for-25 overall from the field and shot a perfect 6-for-6 at the charity stripe. George was also the best rebounder in the game with 10 boards and added four assists to his line with two steals and three turnovers in 35 minutes. PG13 is off to a great start to the season with back-to-back double-doubles and very efficient shooting. He'll look to go off again on Monday against a Portland team that tends to have defensive lapses. George shot 58 percent against the Blazers last season and averaged over 30 points in the matchup.

Fri Oct 22 202109:16Paul George Goes For 29 And 11 In Season Debut
Los Angeles Clippers shooting guard/small forward Paul George had a big game in a losing effort against the Golden State Warriors in the team's season opener. He shot 12-for-23 from the field on the way to a team-high 29 points. He hit five three-pointers and also added 11 rebounds, six assists and a steal while committing three turnovers. George is slated to have a massive usage rate this year with Kawhi Leonard (knee) likely out for the entirety of the season. Last year, George averaged 23.3 points per game while attempting 17.6 field goals per game. There's a good chance we see both of those numbers increase significantly this year as he'll frequently need to put the Clippers on his back.
