Nicolas Batum in protocols, out Wednesday for Clippers
Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Nicolas Batum has entered the league's health and safety protocols.
What It Means:
Batum has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Denver Nuggets and he will likely be out at least three games. Marcus Morris, Terance Mann, Justise Winslow, and Serge Ibaka are all in line for larger roles while Batum is out.
Batum logged 36.3 minutes on Monday and set season-bests in FanDuel points (47.5) and actual points (32). Per numberFire's projections, Mann is currently the No. 11 point-per-dollar value on Wednesday's deep 13-game slate. He has a $4,500 salary and our models project Mann for 26.0 FanDuel points in 31.8 minutes.
