Rotowire
Dunn contributed seven points (3-5 FG, 1-2 3Pt), three rebounds, 10 assists and three steals across 32 minutes during Wednesday's 126-121 Play-In Game loss to the Warriors.
With Los Angeles' season coming to an end, Dunn will be able to hold his head high. He appeared in all 82 regular-season games with 68 starts, posting averages of 7.3 points, 3.6 assists, 3.3 rebounds, 1.6 steals and 1.0 three-pointers in 27.2 minutes per contest.

Lopez ended his season with another serviceable performance, finishing what was a roller coaster campaign. Following the trade of Ivica Zubac, Lopez was thrust into a starting role, something that he was almost certainly not expecting coming into the season. While he was able to fill the role admirably, it is unlikely that the Clippers view him as a long-term solution. In 29 appearances over the final two months, Lopez averaged 11.4 points, 5.3 rebounds, 1.3 blocks and 1.6 three-pointers in 27.5 minutes per game.

In six games over the final two weeks, he averaged 17.0 points, 30. rebounds, 5.7 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.7 three-pointers.

Rotowire
Leonard totaled 21 points (8-17 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), seven rebounds and three assists over 40 minutes during Wednesday's 126-121 Play-In Game loss to the Warriors.
Despite a strong start to the game, Leonard went missing down the stretch, scoring just two of his 21 points during the fourth quarter. It was a disappointing end to the season for the Clippers, particularly given all the effort that went into recovering from what was a disastrous start to the campaign. As for Leonard, his season couldn't have gone much better, putting up top-five fantasy value while playing at least 65 games for the second time in the past three seasons.

Jackson (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's Play-In Tournament game against the Warriors, NBA writer Justin Russo reports.
Jackson missed the Clippers' final eight regular-season games due to a right ankle sprain, though he could return for Wednesday's win-or-go-home matchup. If the big man remains sidelined, John Collins and Brook Lopez would be candidates for increased playing time.
