Garland (toe) will not play Thursday against the Pelicans.
EDGE Analysis
As expected, Garland will be rested for the second leg of this back-to-back set. The guard produced 13 points (6-12 FG, 1-3 3Pt), one rebound, six assists and one steal in 29 minutes during Wednesday's 124-109 loss to the Pelicans. Kris Dunn and Jordan Miller could step into larger roles as a result Thursday.

EDGE Analysis
Garland played through a questionable tag Wednesday for the front end of this back-to-back set, and a maintenance day could be on the table Thursday. Since joining the Clippers, he's averaging 19.0 points, 6.5 assists, 2.3 rebounds, 1.1 steals and 3.4 three-pointers in 27.3 minutes per contest.

Garland (toe) will play in Wednesday's game against the Pelicans, per Law Murray of The Athletic.
EDGE Analysis
Wednesday is the first half of a back-to-back set with New Orleans, so Garland's presence might mean a maintenance day is coming Thursday. The star guard has averaged 19.9 points, 6.6 assists, 2.4 rebounds, 1.1 steals and 3.7 three-pointers in 27.0 minutes per game over seven contests for the Clippers so far, shooting 46.4 percent from deep.

Garland collected 25 points (9-21 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds, 10 assists and two steals in 32 minutes during Monday's 119-115 loss to San Antonio.
EDGE Analysis
Garland pieced together yet another impressive all-around performance, but it wasn't enough to will LA to a victory. He scored 20-plus points for a fifth straight game and recorded his first double-double since returning from a right big toe sprain by making his mark as a facilitator. The Clippers will gear up for a back-to-back set later in the week, so it's possible that Garland will sit either Wednesday or Thursday in an effort to keep him healthy.

Garland (toe) amassed 25 points (9-20 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, seven assists and one steal over 30 minutes during Saturday's 118-109 loss to the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
Garland returned as expected for the tail end of the back-to-back. The upcoming schedule shows an upcoming back-to-back set against the Pelicans beginning on Wednesday, so there's a possibility that Garland could sit for one of those contests. He should be ready for Monday's game against the Spurs. The team would need Garland's production if Kawhi Leonard's (ankle) injury warrants a multi-game absence, and that could create a scenario where the Clippers start Garland despite the recent trend.

Garland (toe) is available for Saturday's game against the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
Garland did not play in the front end of the Clippers' back-to-back set against the Bulls on Friday while managing a lingering left toe injury, but the veteran point guard will be available for Saturday's Western Conference clash. Over his last three outings, Garland has averaged 21.7 points, 6.3 assists, 2.0 rebounds, 4.3 threes and 1.3 steals over 26.3 minutes per game.

Garland is out for Friday's game against the Bulls due to left toe injury management, Joey Linn of SI.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Garland will take a seat Friday after playing in three straight games for LA. The Clippers have shown a tendency to start Kris Dunn at point guard when Garland isn't available, so that option should be on the table versus Chicago.

Garland amassed 21 points (8-13 FG, 5-9 3Pt), one rebound, six assists and two steals in 23 minutes during Wednesday's 153-128 victory over the Timberwolves.
EDGE Analysis
Garland didn't debut for the Clippers until March 2 and made his first start last Saturday in a win over the Grizzlies. The Clippers have gone 3-0 with Garland as a starter, and the former Cavaliers floor general has posted excellent numbers so far with averages of 21.7 points, 6.3 assists, 2.0 rebounds and 1.3 steals per game. Garland has scored at least 21 points in his three starts while shooting 46.9 percent from the floor and 50 percent from three, so the arrow is definitely pointing up for him.

Garland closed with 23 points (7-16 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 4-6 FT), one rebound, seven assists and two steals over 30 minutes during Monday's 126-118 win over New York.
EDGE Analysis
Garland is still sitting out at least one game during back-to-back sets, but his production is starting to find signs of life. He followed up a 21-point performance against the Grizzlies with another total over 20 points, drilling five three-pointers in the process. His perimeter game and assist production are his strongest suits, and Monday's line is reminiscent of the totals he compiled with the Cavaliers earlier in the season.
