Brook Lopez posted a double-double for the Clippers Friday night, grabbing 10 rebounds and scoring 16 points (7-12 FG, 1-3 3PT, 1-1 FT) while also recording two steals, dishing out one assist, and blocking three shots in a 125-122 loss to the Lakers.
Fantasy Impact
Lopez continues a modest stretch on both ends of the floor, finishing with one or more rebounds and five or more points in each of his last five games. The veteran center remains more of a frustrating option in the Los Angeles starting five for fantasy managers to this point, averaging 6.8 points, 1.1 blocks, and 2.7 rebounds in 18.8 minutes per game to go along with a 17.4% usage rate so far this season.
Brook Lopez scored 31 points (9-16 FG, 9-14 3P, 4-4 FT) with five rebounds, an assist, and two blocks in the Clippers' 119-103 win over the Blazers.
Fantasy Impact
Lopez's previous season-high in points was 15, and he crushed that against the Blazers. It was a vintage game for Splash Mountain, but it was more than that. It was a career high in three pointers made in a single game for Lopez, but also, he's now just the third player in NBA history over the age of 37 to hit nine threes in a game. Don't let this performance sway you to thinking he will now average 20 points a game, but it's still fun to see him go off from time to time.
Brook Lopez has agreed to a two-year, $18 million deal with the Los Angeles Clippers.
Fantasy Impact
Lopez, an NBA champion in 2021 with the Bucks will get a fresh start with the Clippers. He slowed down a bit last year, but he figures to not be needed as much with Ivica Zubac down low for the Clippers.
Brook Lopez has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Pistons.
Fantasy Impact
