Los Angeles Clippers forward Amir Coffey (knee) will miss a fifth consecutive game on Tuesday against the San Antonio Spurs. He is dealing with inflammation in his left knee. Coffey has been a useful piece in the rotation for the Clippers this season, averaging 9.8 points in 24.6 minutes. However, his playing time has decreased recently, as the team has become healthier. The 27-year-old has not logged more than 16 minutes in any of his five appearances, meaning Coffey is not a big loss for the Clippers.
Los Angeles Clippers forward Amir Coffey (knee) is available ahead of Thursday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Coffey will return to the mix after sitting out the final game before the All-Star break. Before that, Coffey had scored 14 points or more in each of his last three games ahead of the final game before the break. His fantasy value figures to take a dip going forward with Ben Simmons likely seeing an increased role in the rotation. Coffey isn't someone who should be rostered in most fantasy formats right now.
Los Angeles Clippers forward Amir Coffey (knee) will be inactive as the team wraps up a back-to-back on Thursday against the Utah Jazz. Coffey played 18 minutes in Wednesday's victory over the Memphis Grizzlies but landed on the injury report with left knee soreness. The team has downgraded him from questionable to out ahead of tip-off. Kawhi Leonard (knee) also won't play on Thursday, which opens up quite a bit of playing time for the rest of the Clippers forwards. Ben Simmons, who is set to make his team debut, may also absorb some of the available minutes.
Los Angeles Clippers forward Amir Coffey (knee) has been listed as questionable for Thursday's tilt against the Utah Jazz. A sore left knee might keep Coffey sidelined after he logged 18 minutes in Wednesday's win against the Memphis Grizzlies. So far, Coffey has missed only one game this season. He has been a solid contributor for the Clippers but does not hold much fantasy value. Across 25.9 minutes of action, Coffey has averaged 10.4 points, 2.4 rebounds, and 1.1 assists. If he is out on Thursday, Derrick Jones Jr., Bogdan Bogdanovic, and Nicolas Batum may receive additional playing opportunities.
Los Angeles Clippers forward Amir Coffey will start in Wednesday's matchup with the Portland Trail Blazers. Terance Mann (shoulder) was injured during practice on Tuesday, while Norman Powell (leg) will miss his second straight contest. But now that Coffey will roll with the first five, DFS managers must keep him on the radar, especially since he's averaged 11.3 points in 10 starts throughout the 2023-24 campaign.
Amir Coffey Gets Two Misdemeanors From July Arrest
Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Amir Coffey's July 30 arrest has resulted in two misdemeanors. "The Los Angeles City Attorney's Office has filed one count of carrying a loaded firearm and one count of carrying a concealed firearm against Coffey", per TMZ. The 26-year-old is yet to comment on the charges, and things certainly don't sound to be getting any better. Coffey is expected back in court later in September for a hearing on the situation. Fantasy managers should have already been avoiding the former undrafted swingman before these developments occurred.
Los Angeles Clippers forward Amir Coffey was arrested on misdemeanor possession of a firearm in a car where he was a passenger over the weekend. The car was pulled over for speeding, but the police smelled marijuana as they approached the vehicle and searched it. They found a gun that Coffey admitted was his and he was booked into jail. He was later released and will have a court date sometime in August. The Clippers have acknowledged the situation and said to be looking into it. Coffey signed a three-year deal with the Clippers last season. He has been playing a reserve role off the bench, which is unlikely to change.
Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Amir Coffey finished with 11 points during Friday's preseason win over Israeli club Maccabi Ra'anana. The 25-year-old logged 18 minutes, shooting 4-for-6 from the field while adding five rebounds and three steals. Last season, Coffey made 30 appearances in the starting lineup, averaging 13.4 points, 4.1 rebounds, and shot 42.5% from deep. He's reportedly added some muscle throughout the offseason, so it appears he's committed to having a breakout year in 2022-23. Fantasy managers shouldn't go out of the way to acquire Coffey, but he's a guy who could easily land a routine spot off the bench.
Free-agent guard Amir Coffey is returning to the Clippers on a three-year, $11 million deal. The 25-year-old averaged 9.0 points and 2.9 rebounds while shooting 37.8% from deep last season. Yet, his numbers throughout his 30 appearances as a starter were a little better. Coffey's versatility allows him to play multiple positions, so he should continue to be a reliable bench asset for L.A. in 2022-23. Still, he probably won't be a consistent fantasy option, so his services should be left for those in deeper formats or when he's allotted extra minutes.
Amir Coffey Drops Career-High 35 Points, First Double-Double
LA Clippers small/power forward Amir Coffey enjoyed the best all-around performance of his professional career during Sunday's win over Oklahoma City. Coffey shifted into the starting five and took advantage of his 43 minutes played to compile a career-high 35 points to go along with the first double-double of his career. Coffey shot 13-for-22 overall, including going 7-for-10 from deep, while snatching 13 boards and dishing out five assists. The 24-year-old's playing time was sporadic throughout the regular season, but with Paul George and Norman Powell back in the mix, Coffey is unlikely to hold DFS relevance if the team advances beyond the Play-In Tournament. He finishes the year having averaged nine PPG across 69 contests (30 starts).
