Kennard finished with five points (2-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists and one steal across 23 minutes during Sunday's 100-90 loss to Chicago.
EDGE Analysis
Kennard struggled to make any sort of meaningful impact Sunday. After going missing last season, Kennard has at least been able to carve out a regular role in the Clippers' rotation this year. He doesn't do a lot outside of scoring, so when his shot isn't falling or he becomes passive on offense, there's not much to prop up his fantasy value. Barring any roster shifts, he should be viewed as a streaming option in competitive leagues.

Kennard finished Sunday's win over the Hornets with 18 points (6-12 FG, 6-11 3Pt), three assists, two rebounds and one steal.
EDGE Analysis
After scuffling through much of last season, Kennard has been able to secure a more stable role in 2021-22 with Kawhi Leonard (knee) sidelined. Kennard has played at least 20 minutes in all nine games thus far, and Sunday marked his fourth game with at least 14 points. For fantasy purposes, Kennard is essentially a points/threes contributor.

Kennard registered 14 points (4-10 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and two assists over 30 minutes in a 99-94 victory against Oklahoma City on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Kennard led Clippers' reserves in scoring in the contest and has now logged at least 30 minutes in three straight contests. He has drained at least two triples in each of his past five games and is averaging 13.8 points over that span. Kennard isn't likely to contribute over various categories, but he has some fantasy value as a scorer with the ability to get hot from beyond the arc.

Kennard finished with 16 points (6-15 FG, 4-11 3Pt)four rebounds, two steals and one assist in 32 minutes during Friday's 111-92 loss to the Trail Blazers.
EDGE Analysis
Kennard was one of only two players on the Clippers squad to score in double-digits, highlighting their offensive struggles. After falling out of the rotation at times last season, Kennard has been able to work his way back into a meaningful role and his production has followed suit. His long-term value is far from certain but for right now, he makes sense as a 12-team asset for those in need of perimeter scoring.

Kennard finished Monday's 116-86 win over Portland with 23 points (8-10 FG, 6-7 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one blocked shot over 24 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Kennard's contributions off the bench were vital in helping Los Angeles to its first victory of the season, as he led the team with 23 points while drilling six of seven attempts from three-point range. Though the game got out of hand late, Kennard's output wasn't a product of garbage time -- in fact, 17 of his points were tallied in the first half. The strong effort comes on the heels of a mediocre pair of performances, during which Kennard combined for only 17 points and three triples, to open the campaign.

Kennard is starting Monday's preseason game against the Timberwolves, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kennard will get his first start of the preseason with both Reggie Jackson and Paul George out for rest. He put up 19 points to go with three rebounds and an assist through 23 minutes in the team's last exhibition Friday against Dallas.

Kennard totaled 18 points (7-9 FG, 4-6 3Pt) and two rebounds in 29 minutes during Tuesday's 112-109 loss to the Jazz.
EDGE Analysis
Kennard factored heavily in the rotation, continuing where he left off in Game 7 against the Mavericks. With a number of the usual suspects failing to have a real impact, Kennard found his range from the perimeter, something the team will be hoping can stick moving forward. It is hard to project his exact role from one game to the next, but at least this is a step in the right direction after Kennard was a DNP-CD in four games during Round 1.

Kennard had 11 points (4-6 FG, 3-5 3Pt) off the bench in Sunday's Game 7 win over Dallas.
EDGE Analysis
Kennard picked up four DNP-CDs in the series, but he provided a nice boost off the bench Sunday as coach Ty Lue trusted him for longer stretches while pulling back on Rajon Rondo's workload (nine minutes). Going forward, there's a good chance Kennard will remain on the fringes of the rotation, but he'll likely have a few more opportunities to provide a spark for a team that suddenly has a navigable path to the Finals. With that said, the Clippers certainly hoped to get more out of a player they inked to a $64 million extension back in December.

Kennard recorded 13 points (6-14 FG, 1-7 3Pt), three rebounds, three steals and an assist across 30 minutes in Sunday's loss to the Thunder.
EDGE Analysis
Kennard was one of three starters that scored in double digits for the Clippers -- and was one of the few regulars that didn't receive rest -- but his shooting figures were concerning, as he made just one of his seven three-point attempts. Kennard was productive when playing as a starter and not so much when coming off the bench, something that doesn't bode well for his fantasy upside in most formats come playoff time since he's likely to feature as a second-unit scoring weapon going forward.

Kennard scored 23 points (9-19 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT) across 41 minutes in a loss to Houston on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Kennard started for the 16th time this season as the Clippers elected to rest most of their usual starters in the second game of a back-to-back set. The 24-year-old performed well as a scorer, making nearly half of his shots, including three from beyond the arc. However, he remarkably contributed next to nothing in terms of peripheral stats in spite of logging over 40 minutes, finishing with no rebounds or defensive stats along with only one assist.
