Injury report

LA Clippers

  • Jordan MillerOut· back Mar 2
    Report note

    Miller underwent surgery Wednesday to repair a torn left rotator cuff and will be re-evaluated in six months, per Law Murray of The Athletic. It's a tough break for Miller, who had an opportunity to battle for a reserve role during training camp in the fall. The timeline for a return is likely to keep him on the shelf until after the All-Star break. Miller's extended stay on the sidelines gives Kobe Sanders a chance to crack the Clippers' rotation.

  • Brandon IngramOut· back Nov 13
    Report note

    Ingram (Achilles) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game at Phoenix, Ohm Youngmisuk of ESPN.com reports. Ingram is nearing a return to action, though he won't make his season debut Tuesday. The veteran swingman's next opportunity to suit up will come Friday against Oklahoma City.

  • Bradley BealOut· back Nov 29Report updated ·
    Report note

    Beal (knee) will not be ready for the start of the regular season, NBA writer Justin Russo reports. Beal is dealing with knee inflammation that will keep him sidelined for Opening Night. While it's unclear how long the Clippers will be without the veteran guard, Darius Garland, Keaton Wagler and Kris Dunn should dominate the backcourt minutes in his absence. Beal's 2025-26 campaign was cut short by a hip injury after he averaged 8.2 points and 1.7 assists in 20.6 minutes across just six regular-season appearances.

  • Yanic Konan NiederhauserOut· back Nov 17
    Report note

    Niederhauser (foot) is out for Tuesday's game against Phoenix, Ohm Youngmisuk of ESPN.com reports. Niederhauser has yet to make an appearance this season for the Clippers while rehabbing from foot surgery. It's unclear at this time when he'll be available to take the court, and he can be considered week-to-week until further notice.

  • Cam ChristieDay to day· back Nov 13Report updated ·
    Report note

    Christie (ankle) is listed as out for Tuesday's game against Phoenix. Christie will miss his fifth game of the 2026-27 campaign. The 21-year-old rookie has averaged only 6.0 minutes per contest in his five regular-season appearances, so his absence won't have much of an effect on the rotation.
