Nicolas Batum

Nicolas Batum scored 9 points (3-7 FG, 3-7 3P) with three rebounds, a steal, and a block in the Clippers' 114-103 loss to the Suns.

Fantasy Impact

Batum had a thing for threes in this game. Three three's, three rebounds, and three stocks. Even when he's given an expanded role, he's best left on waivers for fantasy in this stage of his career.

Nicolas Batum intends to sign a two-year, $11.5 million deal to return to the Los Angeles Clippers.

Fantasy Impact

The deal includes a team option as well as a trade kicker. Batum will likely remain in a reserve role in the Clippers front court.

Nicolas Batum is declining his $4.9 million player option with the Los Angeles Clippers to become a free agent.

Fantasy Impact

While Batum is set to become a free agent, Charania reports there is mutual interest between him and the Clippers in reaching a new deal. He appeared in 78 games last season, averaging 4.0 points, 2.8 rebounds and 1.1 assists in 17.5 minutes per game.

Nicolas Batum said there’s a “good chance” that the 2025-26 season will be his last in the NBA.

Fantasy Impact

Batum has played almost two decades after being a first-round pick back in 2008. He will likely remain in a limited role next season with the Clippers off the bench.

Nicolas Batum told reporters he will play in Game 1 on Saturday against the Nuggets.

Fantasy Impact

Batum was able to log a full practice on Wednesday. He should be good to go in his reserve role to open the Clippers opening series against Denver.
