Nicolas Batum

Nicolas Batum is not listed on the injury report for Thursday's game against the Denver Nuggets.

Fantasy Impact

Batum missed the Los Angeles Clippers’ final two games before the All-Star break for rest, but is set to return Thursday. He’s averaging 1.8 points, 3.2 rebounds and 1.2 assists in 14 minutes, keeping him off the fantasy radar in his return.

Nicolas Batum (rest) will be sidelined for Wednesday's game against the Houston Rockets.

Fantasy Impact

The veteran will be getting the night off on Wednesday as a rest game. He should be back after the All-Star Break, and fantasy managers should look for Derrick Jones Jr. to see more work until then.

Nicolas Batum is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies.

Fantasy Impact

Batum is battling an illness, putting his availability in question for Monday’s contest. The Los Angeles Clippers will likely wait until Monday’s shootaround to assess how he’s feeling before making a decision. If he’s unable to play, Kobe Sanders and Kobe Brown would be in line for increased minutes.

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.
