Kennard had 12 points (5-9 FG, 2-5 3Pt), one assist and two steals over 26 minutes during Monday's 113-93 victory over the Celtics.
EDGE Analysis
Kennard, who's struggled to produce this season, surpassed the 10-point mark for the first time since Nov. 9, when he scored 13 points as a starter in a win over the Lakers. Aside from the fact that he's already missed 11 games due to injury, Kennard has been too inconsistent to be valuable in most fantasy formats, especially if both Kawhi Leonard and Paul George remain available and healthy going forward.

Kennard contributed seven points (3-7 FG, 1-5 3Pt), three rebounds and two assists in 24 minutes during Thursday's 115-110 loss to the Heat.
EDGE Analysis
Kennard put together an average outing in just his second game since Nov. 15, as he's working his way back into game shape following a calf injury that forced him to miss 10 of his team's last 11 matchups. The Duke product has logged 20 or more minutes in each of his two games since being cleared, so he doesn't appear to be on any sort of minute restriction.

Kennard (calf) will play in Thursday's game against Miami, Law Murray of The Athletic reports
EDGE Analysis
Kennard will return Thursday after missing Wednesday's game against the magic with a calf injury. Kennard should see extended minutes against Miami with Terance Mann (concussion) and Norman Powell (groin) out.

Kennard (injury management) won't play Wednesday against the Magic, Ohm Youngmisuk of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kennard returned from a nine-game absence due to a calf injury Monday and scored nine points (3-5 FG) in 20 minutes. His absence Wednesday can likely be attributed to rest, so fantasy mangers can optimistically expect him to be available for the second half of the Clippers' back-to-back Thursday. However, the lefty sharpshooter figures to remain limited while he works his way back to full strength.

Kennard (calf) logged 20 minutes off the bench in Monday's 119-117 win over the Hornets, finishing with nine points (3-5 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds and two assists.
EDGE Analysis
Kennard was on a minute restriction in his return from a nine-game absence, but it's unlikely that he'll see a dramatic increase in playing time now that the Clippers are at close to full strength. His return coincided with stars Kawhi Leonard (ankle) and Paul George (hamstring) also making their way back from multi-game absences, leaving fewer minutes available for the rest of the Clippers' wing and forward options. Norman Powell (groin) is also expected to rejoin the mix eventually, a development that could squeeze Kennard's playing time even further.

Kennard (calf) is available for Monday's matchup against the Hornets, Sam Perley of the Hornets' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kennard will be available for the first time since suffering a calf injury during a Nov. 15 loss to Dallas. However, as to be expected, the sharpshooter will be limited during his return from a lengthy absence, per Perley. With Kawhi Leonard and Paul George also available, Kennard figures to operate off the bench. Across seven games as a reserve, Kennard has averaged 8.9 points and 2.3 rebounds in 21.7 minutes per contest.

Kennard (calf) is questionable for Monday's matchup against the Hornets, Ohm Youngmisuk of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kennard suffered a calf injury Nov. 15 against the Mavericks and has remained sidelined since. Monday's designation marks the first time Kennard has been listed as questionable since suffering the injury, so even if he doesn't suit up, it appears he's nearing a return to game action.

Kennard (calf) won't take the floor Saturday versus the Kings, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kennard has spent more than two weeks on the sidelines tending to a calf issue and will need at least a little longer to get it where he wants. On a positive note, Kennard will practice Friday, per Andrew Greif of the Los Angeles Times, so he seems to be drawing closer to a return. The sharpshooter's next opportunity to rejoin the action surfaces in the first of a four-game road trip Monday in Charlotte.

Kennard (calf), who is listed as out for Sunday's game against the Pacers, won't be available for the Clippers' upcoming two-game road trip Tuesday in Portland and Wednesday in Utah, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Clippers will also be without Paul George (hamstring) for each of their next three games, while Kawhi Leonard (ankle) is sitting out again Sunday but hasn't yet been ruled out for the road trip. Kennard, who hasn't played since Nov. 15 due to the right calf strain, was seen getting some shots up at morning shootaround Sunday, per Joey Linn of SI.com. With that in mind, Kennard at least seems to have a decent chance at steering clear of a longer-term absence.

Kennard (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against Indiana.
EDGE Analysis
Kennard is set to miss a sixth straight game due to a calf injury. Paul George (hamstring) and Kawhi Leonard (ankle) also remain out, so Norman Powell, Terance Mann and Amir Coffey should continue to garner increased roles.
