  Batum contributed nine points (3-6 FG, 3-5 3Pt) and three rebounds over 20 minutes during Monday's 102-99 victory over the Warriors. Batum recorded season highs in both points (9) and three-pointers (3) as the Clippers picked up their second straight win. Batum has averaged just 16.9 minutes per contest in 15 appearances, so fantasy managers should look elsewhere for someone with a better path to value.

  Batum scored zero points (0-1 FG), adding three rebounds, three assists, two steals and two blocks in 18 minutes during Monday's preseason win over Dallas. Now in the twilight of his career, Batum's role on this Clippers team is going to be muted, to say the least. He should be in the rotation every night but is likely to be limited to about 20 minutes when everyone is healthy.
