What happened: Brandon Ingram and Yanic Konan Niederhauser will not play in Monday's road game against Phoenix. Ingram remains sidelined following right heel surgery, while Niederhauser continues rehabilitation from right Lisfranc surgery.
Why it matters: The continued absences test depth for a Clippers squad that sits 13th in the Western Conference at 1-7 in 2026-27 through eight games. Los Angeles has dropped seven consecutive contests, most recently falling 117-116 to the Miami Heat on Nov. 4.
By the numbers: The Clippers are 1-7 in 2026-27 through 8 games and sit 13th in the Western Conference on a seven-game losing streak following a 117-116 loss to Miami.
What to watch: Los Angeles looks to halt its seven-game skid as it opens the road matchup at Phoenix.
