Lopez registered 15 points (6-10 FG, 3-7 3Pt), one rebound, three assists, two blocks and two steals over 37 minutes during Wednesday's 105-102 win over the Rockets.
Fantasy managers can continue to treat Lopez as a low-end center option in the aftermath of the Ivica Zubac (ankle) trade. Lopez has averaged 9.4 points, 3.2 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 1.6 blocks, 1.0 steals and 1.6 three-pointers in 30.4 minutes per game in his last five contests, shooting 42.1 percent from downtown.

Clippers' Brook Lopez: Limited again despite start
Rotowire
Lopez finished Tuesday's 102-95 loss to the Rockets with seven points (3-6 FG, 1-2 3Pt), two rebounds, one block and one steal across 29 minutes.
Lopez scored no more than seven points for the third time in the past four games, all of which have been starts. With Ivica Zubac traded to Indiana, Lopez assumed the starting role immediately. However, outside of a strong performance against the Kings, Lopez has been unable to deliver impactful standard-league production. During that four-game stretch, he has averaged just 8.0 points, 3.8 rebounds and 1.5 blocks in 28.7 minutes per contest. At best, he should be viewed as a blocks streamer.

Clippers' Brook Lopez: Falls just short of double-double
Rotowire
Lopez ended with 15 points (5-12 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), nine rebounds, two assists, three blocks and one steal in 36 minutes during Friday's 114-111 victory over the Kings.
Making his second start since Ivica Zubac (ankle) was dealt to the Pacers, Lopez set a new season high in rebounds while posting his best scoring effort since a 31-point eruption in Portland on Dec. 26. The 37-year-old center may not have a lot left in the tank, but the Clippers will be counting on him to step up as part of the new supporting cast around Kawhi Leonard. Over nine starts this season, Lopez is averaging 10.1 points, 4.7 boards, 2.2 threes, 1.7 assists and 1.2 blocks in 25.8 minutes.

Clippers' Brook Lopez: Chips in 13 points off bench
Rotowire
Lopez closed Monday's 128-113 loss to Philadelphia with 13 points (5-11 FG, 3-6 3Pt), one rebound, one assist and one block across 20 minutes.
Lopez continues to provide some value in deep category-driven leagues, but his upside is capped as long as Ivica Zubac is healthy at center. Over his last six appearances, Lopez has averaged 8.0 points, 2.5 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 1.0 blocks and 1.7 three-pointers in 18.4 minutes per game.

Clippers' Brook Lopez: Scores 10 points in win
Rotowire
Lopez racked up 10 points (4-6 FG, 2-4 3Pt), two rebounds and two assists in 15 minutes during Thursday's 112-104 victory over the Lakers.
Lopez scored in double figures for the eighth time this season and drilled multiple triples for the 13th time. The veteran big man has maintained a modest role off the bench for the Clippers this season, starting seven outings and exceeding 20 minutes in only 10 games. The 37-year-old is averaging 4.8 points, 2.3 rebounds, 1.0 threes, 0.9 assists and 0.9 blocks in 16.7 minutes over 12 games this month.

Clippers' Brook Lopez: Records three blocks Tuesday
Rotowire
Lopez contributed zero points (0-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt), one rebound and three blocks across 14 minutes during Tuesday's 138-110 loss to the Bulls.
Lopez added three blocks in the loss, although that's really where the good news ends. With Ivica Zubac now healthy, Lopez is playing a modest role off the bench, providing no value outside of the shot-blocking. At best, he can be considered for streaming purposes, although even that might be a stretch at this point.

Clippers' Brook Lopez: Bench role Friday
Rotowire
Lopez is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Raptors, NBA writer Justin Russo reports.
The veteran center drew a spot start Wednesday with Ivica Zubac (ankle) sidelined, but Lopez will return to a reserve role now that Zubac is healthy. In his last five games off the bench, Lopez has averaged 3.6 points, 3.0 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.0 blocks in 16.8 minutes per contest.

Clippers' Brook Lopez: Starting Wednesday
Rotowire
Lopez is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's matchup with the Wizards, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Ivica Zubac is sitting out Wednesday's game with an ankle injury, which will result in Lopez drawing the spot-start. Lopez has been inconsistent as a starter this season with averages of 10.0 points, 4.5 rebounds, 2.7 triples and 1.2 blocks per contest, but with a favorable matchup against the Wizards, he's someone to consider as a streamer.

Clippers' Brook Lopez: Rough night Saturday
Rotowire
Lopez posted zero points (0-4 FG, 0-4 3Pt) and three rebounds in 12 minutes during Saturday's 98-92 win over the Pistons.
Lopez turned into a pumpkin, offering very little in his 12 minutes. Even when Ivica Zubac was sidelined, Lopez was nothing more than a stream option, as his impact on a basketball court continues to decline. Lopez is currently averaging 6.3 points and 1.0 blocks in 16.9 minutes per game.
Lopez won't start against the Warriors on Monday, NBA writer Justin Russo reports.
With Ivica Zubac back in the starting five, Lopez will slide to the second unit. Over 21 appearances off the bench this season, the veteran center has averaged 6.0 points and 2.0 rebounds in 14.7 minutes per contest.
Lopez accumulated three points (1-12 FG, 1-12 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 20 minutes during Thursday's 118-101 victory over the Jazz.
It was a dreadful shooting display by Lopez, who saw fewer minutes than Yanic Konan Niederhauser on Thursday. Lopez should remain the top center while Ivica Zubac (ankle) is on the shelf, but it appears head coach Tyronn Lue is comfortable riding a hot-hand approach when applicable. Lopez has averaged 10.8 points, 5.2 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 1.4 blocks in 27.8 minutes per game in his last five outings (all starts).

Clippers' Brook Lopez: Logs career high in win
Rotowire
Lopez recorded 31 points (9-16 FG, 9-14 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, two blocks and one assist across 33 minutes during Friday's 119-103 victory over Portland.
With Ivica Zubac (ankle) sidelined, Lopez got the starting nod for a second consecutive contest and made the most of the opportunity. The veteran center torched the nets from beyond the arc, sinking a career-high nine triples en route to a season-best mark in points. Lopez fell out of the rotation in late November and early December, though he carries solid short-term value as a member of the starting five and will aim to prove he can remain a steady producer when Zubac, who is expected to miss at least two more weeks, returns.
Clippers' Brook Lopez: Starting Tuesday sans Zubac
Rotowire
Lopez is in the Clippers' starting lineup against the Rockets on Tuesday, NBA writer Justin Russo reports.
Lopez will enter the Clippers' starting lineup for the first time this season Tuesday in the absence of Ivica Zubac, who will be sidelined for at least three weeks due to a Grade 2 left ankle sprain. Lopez started in all 80 regular-season games for the Bucks during the 2024-25 campaign and averaged 13.0 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.9 blocks over 31.8 minutes per game. Lopez has struggled from the field this season (his 40.5 percent field-goal clip is a career worst), but perhaps more consistent playing time will help with his shooting woes.

Clippers' Brook Lopez: Larger role after Zubac exit
Rotowire
Lopez tallied 11 points (4-7 FG, 3-6 3Pt), five rebounds and two blocks over 25 minutes during the Clippers' 103-88 win over the Lakers on Saturday.
Lopez entered Saturday's game averaging 14.2 minutes off the bench, but his 25 minutes were a season high and largely came after Ivica Zubac left in the first quarter due to a left ankle injury. Lopez would be an intriguing fantasy streamer at center for his rebounding and three-point proficiency if Zubac were to be sidelined for an extended period of time.

Clippers' Brook Lopez: Scoreless in 13 minutes
Rotowire
Lopez chipped in zero points (0-1 FG), one block and one steal across 13 minutes during Thursday's 115-113 loss to the Rockets.
After going unused in six consecutive games in coach's decisions, Lopez has moved back into the rotation for the Clippers' last two contests, supplanting Kobe Brown as the backup center. Though he's now back in the mix for the Clippers, Lopez remains an afterthought in fantasy formats, as he's simply not getting sufficient playing time behind starter Ivica Zubac. Across 19 appearances this season, Lopez is averaging 5.8 points and 1.7 rebounds in 14.1 minutes per contest and is shooting a career-worst 39 percent from the field.
