Clippers' Bogdan Bogdanovic: Serviceable performance in win
Rotowire
Bogdanovic ended with 16 points (5-11 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, five assists and one steal across 29 minutes during Wednesday's 134-117 victory over Houston.
Bogdanovic scored double-digits for the fourth time in the past five games, playing a handful of extra minutes after Norman Powell was ruled out due to a shoulder injury. Although Bogdanovic has been a regular part of the rotation since arriving in Los Angeles, he has struggled to be a consistent producer. Over his past 16 games, Bogdanovic has averaged 12.4 points, 3.6 assists and 2.3 three-pointers in 24.2 minutes per game.

Clippers' Bogdan Bogdanovic: Questionable Monday
Rotowire
Bogdanovic (knee) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Magic.
Bogdanovic is in jeopardy of missing his first game since Feb. 8 due to right knee soreness.

If Bogdanovic joins Amir Coffey (knee), Ben Simmons (knee) and Jordan Miller (hamstring) on the sideline Monday, Kobe Brown and Cam Christie are candidates to crack the rotation.

James Harden picked up quad and ankle injuries late in Sunday's 103-101 loss to the Thunder, but his status for Wednesday's game against New York is unclear for now.

Apart from Sunday's dud, Bogdanovic has fared well with the Clippers with averages of 12.3 points, 3.4 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 0.7 steals and 2.1 three-pointers.

Clippers' Bogdan Bogdanovic: Goes for seven points in debut
Rotowire
Bogdanovic tallied seven points (3-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and one steal across 18 minutes in Wednesday's 128-114 win over the Grizzlies.
Making his Clippers debut, Bogdanovic shot efficiently from the field but didn't see enough playing time to make a meaningful fantasy impact. With the Clippers ruling out Kawhi Leonard (knee) for the second leg of a back-to-back set Thursday at Utah, Bogdanovic could see more opportunities, but the 32-year-old may find it challenging to carve out anything more than a 20-to-25-minute role when LA is at full strength.
