Clippers' Amir Coffey: Productive off bench
Coffey amassed 13 points (4-8 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, four assists and one steal across 27 minutes during Monday's 134-128 loss to Oklahoma City.
Coffey and Kris Dunn provided the Clippers with some quality minutes off the bench Monday. Coffey has upped his game in six November outings, producing 11.5 points, 2.5 rebounds, 1.0 assists, 0.8 steals and 2.2 three-pointers in 24.8 minutes per contest.

Clippers' Kris Dunn: Hands out eight assists
Dunn amassed nine points (3-6 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds and eight assists across 28 minutes during Monday's 134-128 loss to Oklahoma City.
Dunn handed out a season-high eight assists and matched his highest workload of the campaign, but it wasn't enough as the Clippers dropped to 6-5 on the season. Dunn's minutes haven't been consistent, but he's been productive in his limited floor time with averages of 7.0 points, 3.2 assists, 3.0 rebounds, 1.2 three-pointers and 0.7 steals in 21.5 minutes across six November outings.

Clippers' James Harden: Nears triple-double in defeat
Harden racked up 17 points (5-15 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 4-5 FT), 11 rebounds and nine assists across 37 minutes during Monday's 134-128 loss to Oklahoma City.
Harden nearly produced a triple-double with a team-high nine assists, though he also led the Clippers with five of their 23 turnovers in the loss. The superstar struggled with efficiency in a night to forget from the field, and he also got into foul trouble in the third quarter, limiting his run in the second half. Harden has stuffed the stat sheet through 11 regular-season appearances, during which he has averaged 20.8 points, 9.0 assists, 8.4 rebounds, 1.6 steals and 0.9 blocks across 35.1 minutes per game. However, he is shooting only 35.9 percent from the field, including 30.7 percent from three-point range.

Clippers' Derrick Jones: Sets season high in loss
Jones chipped in 20 points (8-13 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 0-1 FT), five rebounds, three assists and one steal over 33 minutes during Monday's 134-128 loss to Oklahoma City.
Jones produced a bounce-back game after scoring only four points and shooting 1-for-5 from the field in Saturday's win over Toronto. The 27-year-old has reached the double-digit mark in scoring in seven of 11 regular-season outings, though his 20 points Monday marks a new season high. Jones has averaged 11.2 points, 3.5 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 1.1 steals while shooting 45.2 percent from beyond the arc across 27.1 minutes per game thus far.

Clippers' Ivica Zubac: Nabs double-double in defeat
Zubac had 22 points (9-12 FG, 4-6 FT), 14 rebounds and three blocks across 34 minutes during Monday's 134-128 loss to the Thunder.
Despite the Thunder's tallest player in the starting five standing at 6-foot-6, Zubac was extremely quiet in the first half, during which he posted only four points on two attempts while being swarmed in the paint. However, the big man was electric in the second half, and he finished as the club's second-leading scorer behind Norman Powell (31). Zubac's efficiency and ability to rack up rebounds has made him a consistent starter in fantasy formats, and he has totaled seven double-doubles through 11 regular-season appearances.

Clippers' Norman Powell: Career-best half in loss
Powell produced 31 points (10-15 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 6-8 FT), four assists, three steals and two rebounds in 37 minutes before fouling out of Monday's 134-128 loss to the Thunder.
Powell failed to make a single attempt from the field in the first half, though he set a career high in the second half by scoring 29 points, with 18 of those coming in the third quarter. The 31-year-old was one of the main reasons the club was able to battle back from a 20-point deficit in the third, and he remained red-hot in the fourth before fouling out with 1:32 remaining in the game. Through 11 regular-season outings, Powell has averaged 26.0 points, 3.3 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.3 steals across 34.4 minutes per game. Moreover, the veteran guard has shot 52.7 percent from the field and 50.5 percent from beyond the arc.

Clippers' Kobe Brown: Recalled from G League
The Clippers recalled Brown from the G League's San Diego Clippers on Monday, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.
Brown posted 30 points (9-14 FG, 5-7 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five steals, four rebounds and four assists across 30 minutes Sunday in San Diego's 137-121 win over the Rip City Remix. He was recalled following the game and is expected to be available for the Clippers' game against the Thunder on Monday. He's not a lock to see any rotation minutes, however.

Clippers' Mo Bamba: Out again Monday
Bamba (knee) is out for Monday's game against the Thunder, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Bamba has yet to appear in a game this season, but he is seemingly nearing a return as he has been a full go during 5-on-5 scrimmages during practice. Nonetheless, Bamba will be unavailable once again Monday.

Clippers' Mo Bamba: Status for road trip TBD
Coach Tyronn Lue said after Saturday's win over the Raptors that Bamba (knee) has been a full go during 5-on-5 scrimmages during recent practices, but the center's status for the Clippers' upcoming three-game road trip remains unclear, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Bamba appears to be nearing his season debut, but even when he's cleared to suit up, his role will likely be minimal. For the most part, the Clippers have been going small with their second unit, but Kai Jones has received some playing time as Ivica Zubac's primary backup over the first few weeks of the season.

Clippers' James Harden: Comes close to triple-double
Harden closed Saturday's 105-103 victory over the Raptors with 24 points (5-17 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 12-13 FT), 12 rebounds, seven assists and one steal in 34 minutes.
Harden is not the player he once was and doesn't carry teams on his own with a massive usage rate, but he remains one of the most unstoppable offensive forces in the league when he's on. His shot wasn't really falling Saturday, and he got 50 percent of his scoring output from the charity stripe, but Harden was dominant on both ends of the court and finished just three assists away from a triple-double. The veteran is averaging 18.6 points, 8.2 rebounds and 6.4 assists per game in five November appearances.

Clippers' Ivica Zubac: Sixth double-double of season
Zubac ended with 14 points (7-12 FG), 12 rebounds, one assist, three blocks and two steals across 38 minutes during Saturday's 105-103 win over the Raptors.
Understandably, Zubac's numbers have regressed a bit following an impressive start to the season that saw him score at least 20 points in four of his first five appearances. He hasn't reached the 20-point mark in five games in November, but he remains a productive two-way player with three double-doubles in that span -- and six overall across 10 games in 2024-25.

Clippers' Norman Powell: Scores 24 points Saturday
Powell amassed 24 points (7-14 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 7-9 FT), three rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal in 35 minutes during Saturday's 105-103 victory over the Raptors.
Powell has been one of the biggest surprises in the early stages of the 2024-25 season, taking advantage of the absence of Kawhi Leonard (knee) to deliver career-best numbers in several categories. He's averaging a personal-best 25.5 points per game and has scored at least 20 points in every game but the season opener, but he's also notching career-high marks in assists per game, field-goal percentage and three-point percentage, among other categories.
