Christian Koloko Fantasy Stats

The New Orleans Pelicans signed center Christian Koloko to a one-year deal on Tuesday, according to Michael Scotto. Koloko is a former second-round pick of the Toronto Raptors from 2022. He has bounced around to four different teams during his three years at the professional level. He played with three different organizations this past season and made a minimal impact during each stop. He figures to serve as a depth option who likely won't see the court unless a few injuries occur.

The Los Angeles Lakers are planning to sign center Christian Koloko to a two-way contract on Monday, per Shams Charania of ESPN. During the 2024-25 regular season, the 7-footer saw action in 37 games, averaging 2.4 points and 2.5 rebounds across 9.2 minutes per contest. For the foreseeable future, Koloko will likely continue to see a limited amount of minutes at center with Deandre Ayton and Jaxson Hayes in the mix.

Los Angeles Lakers center Christian Koloko (illness) will sit out Tuesday's season opener against Minnesota. Following a bout with blood clots, Koloko isn't yet ready to play. The Cameroonian big man was brought in on a two-way contract last month. He adds an extra frontcourt option to the Lakers but isn't expected to play a big role for the team, and it appears likely that Koloko will spend most of the campaign in the G League.

According to NBA insider Shams Charania, free-agent center Christian Koloko agreed to an undisclosed contract with the Los Angeles Lakers. The 24-year-old was selected by the Toronto Raptors in the second round of the 2022 NBA Draft. He appeared in 58 games for the club, averaging 3.1 points, 2.9 rebounds, and 1.0 blocks. Unfortunately, he began suffering from a blood-clotting issue, putting his career in jeopardy. But now that Koloko has a clean bill of health, he'll have a chance to earn a spot in the Lakers' rotation. While he's a long way away from being relevant from a fantasy standpoint, he's worth monitoring in case he earns routine minutes.

Toronto Raptors center Christian Koloko (illness) has no timetable to return as he continues to ramp up to full practice. The 23-year-old has been out since the Summer League due to a unspecified respiratory issue. It doesn't sound like Koloko is close to returning to the court. His absence won't have a huge impact on the Raptors rotation. Koloko only averaged 13.8 minutes per game last season. Fantasy managers can continue to ignore him as it doesn't seem like Koloko is going to play anytime soon.

Toronto Raptors center Christian Koloko (illness) has been ruled out for another game ahead of Monday's meeting with Washington. He hasn't been in the lineup at all this season as he continues to battle a respiratory issue and will miss a 10th straight game on Monday. Koloko had 3.1 points and 2.9 rebounds in 13.8 minutes off the Raptors bench during his rookie year last season. It's unlikely his role will change in 2023-24 once he is available for selection again. Precious Achiuwa and Chris Boucher are the first bigs off the pine for Toronto, but there aren't a lot of minutes available behind Pascal Siakam and Jakob Poeltl, and it makes it difficult for them to have an impact in fantasy basketball.

Toronto Raptors center Christian Koloko won't be at the team's training camp and has been ruled out indefinitely with respiratory issues. This is quite worrisome news, as Koloko already missed the Summer League with the same problem. The Cameroon-born seven-footer debuted in the NBA last season, posting 3.1 points and 2.9 rebounds in 13.8 minutes. Health troubles limited Koloko to 58 appearances in his rookie campaign, and it's unfortunate that he is dealing with another issue ahead of his second year.

Toronto Raptors shooting guard/small forward Gary Trent Jr. and center Christian Koloko have been elevated to the starting lineup for Friday's contest against the Suns. With Fred VanVleet (back) unavailable, Toronto will look to shuffle its starting group after having Scottie Barnes and Pascal Siakam serve as de facto point guards Thursday. While Trent will garner sizable DFS appeal in his own right, Malachi Flynn should also receive some attention after 30 productive minutes. Koloko's value hasn't differed much as a starter, although his oRTG has been significantly higher when coming off the bench (146, vs. 96 as a starter).

Toronto Raptors center Christian Koloko received the starting nod since Pascal Siakam is out with an injury. The rookie turned in a big defensive game as he blocked six shots while adding 11 points, seven boards, and two assists on 4-for-8 shooting. Slowly but surely, the 22-year-old is showing his defensive potential. Especially on a team like the Raptors, he fits in perfectly. As of right now, he's only worth adding in deeper leagues or dynasty formats.

Toronto Raptors center Christian Koloko will move into the starting five for Monday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. The 22-year-old will draw the start here with Fred VanVleet (back) landing on the sideline. Koloko didn't bring much to the table during his last start. He finished with two points, two rebounds, and two assists in 18 minutes of action. Precious Achiuwa, Pascal Siakam and Scottie Barnes should all see increased playing time with Vanvleet on the sideline. Barnes and Siakam are already must-start players, while Achiuwa should have decent value and Koloko can be ignored.
