Ohm Youngmisuk: Doc Rivers said he thinks Landry Shamet will be available Thursday against the Lakers. He said he thinks Patrick Beverley is a maybe. Ivica Zubac started today’s scrimmage. Rivers declined to comment about Montrezl Harrell’s timetable before the scrimmage.
After testing positive for the coronavirus on July 4, LA Clippers guard Landry Shamet has made his way to the NBA bubble for the first time. The 23-year-old flew to Orlando on Saturday, and on Sunday, he shared a view of his room to his Instagram story.
Mirjam Swanson: The Clippers’ Lou Williams has also left on an excused absence, per source. Teammates Patrick Beverley and Montrezl Harrell also have left the bubble to deal with family matters. And the Clippers are still awaiting Landry Shamet and Ivica Zubac.
Andrew Greif: Asked whether Landry Shamet, Ivica Zubac or Marcus Morris have arrived on campus yet and begun the quarantine process, Doc Rivers said he doesn’t know. The Clippers do have JaMychal Green available for practice today, for the first time.
Landry Shamet tests positive for COVID-19
Shams Charania: Clippers guard Landry Shamet has tested positive for coronavirus and is unlikely to travel with the team to Orlando this week, sources tell @The Athletic @Stadium.
Mirjam Swanson: Landry Shamet on COVID concerns ahead of restart in Florida: “There’s risk, there’s no option with no risk at this point. You can get it getting gas today down the street. It’s obviously a concern, but we’re in the best possible situation to combat that.”
Andrew Greif: Landry Shamet on the team’s approach to the 8 seeding games: “I don’t think there’s going to be any lack of urgency.” He adds: “We only have 8 games to ramp up. … There’s no easing into anything.”
The league spent $3.75 billion on player salaries this year, and a replacement-level player would command the veteran’s minimum of $1,618,520. Work backward and overall, a player who was 1 point per 100 possessions above replacement level (say, Landry Shamet or Langston Galloway) was worth $3,183 more than the minimum for every minute he played. Such a player playing 1,000 minutes over the course of the season was worth just less than $5 million. The most valuable player based on this was (duh) Giannis Antetokounmpo, whose production this year was worth $63.75 million in my methodology. I didn’t use negative values for players — the vast majority of the most terrible players are rookies or developmental players who are holding down roster spots for future purposes. For the curious, the two least valuable by this metric were both 20-year-old guards — Cleveland’s Darius Garland and Portland’s Anfernee Simons.

Farbod Esnaashari: Kawhi Leonard on Marcus Morris & Landry Shamet adjusting to a fully healthy team: “I think they’re doing good. They just didn’t knock down shots today. It’s just one of those days. They had good looks, just didn’t knock them down.” pic.twitter.com/9cE0Zelyci
Farbod Esnaashari: Doc Rivers says team defenses don’t want to leave Kawhi/PG/Shamet/Morrid open from three, so it leaves Patrick Beverley open. “He’s the chosen one.” The best way to describe Patrick Beverley. The chosen one.
Shamet orders by reading off his phone. Weitzman had heard that the 76ers’ star, Joel Embiid, had a special order. Shamet confirmed as much, and was careful to make sure the Chick-Fil-A people put that order—four spicy chicken sandwiches, four large fries, four cookies and cream milkshakes—in its own separate bag.” Embiid is a giant man who could be expected to eat a lot. He’s also battled injuries and weight issues. This funny little story about fast food maybe does kind of matter to the 76ers’ title chances. “And I found that so telling,” says Weitzman, “because Joel’s not in shape, generally. I don’t care how much you’re burning. I counted up the calories. It’s not healthy.”
Jovan Buha: Landry Shamet is off the table in trade discussions for Marcus Morris, league sources tell @TheAthleticLA.
Progress made on Marcus Morris to Clippers
Ian Begley: Knicks have made some progress with Clippers on Marcus Morris deal since this morning, per SNY sources. There’s still no indication that LAC would include Landry Shamet in the real.
To that end, a source confirmed that both [Los Angeles] teams are in pursuit of New York’s Marcus Morris. The Knicks small forward who is averaging 19.6 points and 5.4 rebounds is on an expiring contract and is widely expected to be traded. The Knicks, the source said, want the Clippers’ Landry Shamet if they’re going to go in that direction with a deal.
Ian Begley: On Knicks/Clippers and Marcus Morris, NYK certainly has interest in Landry Shamet as part of package in return for Morris but Clippers are unwilling to part with him, per sources. NY Post first reported Knicks targeting Shamet in a Morris deal.
Michael Gallagher: Woj says Landry Shamet is off limits in a trade.
Danny Green involved in Marcus Morris trade?
Brad Turner: Lakers/Clippers in trade conversations about Knicks’ Marcus Morris, sources. NY interested in Kyle Kuzma; would need Danny Green’s contract to make work. NY would want to move Green to another team. Clippers willing to part with Mo Harkless, but like Landry Shamet, who NY wants.
Mike McGraw: Kawhi Leonard (knee), Patrick Beverley (concussion) and Lou Williams (calf) all out for Clippers tonight vs. #Bulls. SG Landry Shamet expected to return from an injury and play tonight.
Adrian Wojnarowski: Clippers guard Landry Shamet will return to the Clippers lineup against Chicago tonight, league sources tell ESPN. He’s been out since mid-November with an ankle injury.
Andrew Greif: Lou Williams, Patrick Beverley and JaMychal Green are all questionable to play tonight against Chicago. Kawhi is out, as is Landry Shamet.
Ohm Youngmisuk: Patrick Beverley (concussion) is out against Minnesota on Friday night. Landry Shamet (ankle) remains out and Rodney McGruder (hamstring) is probable.
Andrew Greif: Doc says he doesn’t expect Landry Shamet to play the rest of this road trip (two more games after tonight) but Rodney McGruder could return as soon as the next game, vs. Minnesota.
Jovan Buha: JaMychal Green is listed as doubtful for tomorrow’s game vs. Toronto, per the Clippers. Landry Shamet and Rodney McGruder are out. Kawhi Leonard is playing.
Andrew Greif: Landry Shamet and Rodney McGruder have been ruled OUT for tomorrow’s game vs. Milwaukee, team says. JaMychal Green (tailbone contusion) is questionable.
Andrew Greif: Doc Rivers said Landry Shamet told him he’s traveling on the upcoming road trip, a sign he could play during the 6-game trip. Rodney McGruder also told Doc he’s playing Friday — but Doc said he wasn’t so sure about that.
Mirjam Swanson: McGruder and Shamet are both out tomorrow; Leonard and George are not listed on the Clippers’ injury report.
Andrew Greif: Clippers injury report ahead of Wednesday’s game in Houston: Paul George is questionable and Landry Shamet (ankle) is out. Kawhi Leonard is not on the team’s injury list.
Chris Haynes: Los Angeles Clippers guard Landry Shamet will undergo an MRI on his sprained left ankle in the morning, league sources tell Yahoo Sports.
Jovan Buha: Per @Patrick Beverley’s IG story, the Clippers showed out for Paul George’s jersey retirement at Fresno State. You can see Pat, Jerome Robinson, Landry Shamet, Terance Mann, Ivica Zubac and Patrick Patterson on the floor (among others).
Shamet’s season earned him an invite to USA Basketball’s Select Team camp. According to sources, he was told he had a good chance at making the roster and playing a pivotal role on the World Cup team in China. But Shamet had to pull out on August 2 because of a minor muscle contusion in his lower leg, an injury which had been lingering from the postseason. With the stakes of the 2019-20 season even higher than before, Shamet couldn’t risk entering training camp at anything less than 100 percent. “I didn’t feel like it was something I needed to be a tough guy about and push through right now,” Shamet said. “I just think I’m young and, hopefully, if I do what I’m supposed to do, there will be more opportunities for me down the line. I’m kind of betting on myself in that sense.”
Mirjam Swanson: Here’s the team’s release on Shamet and Robinson’s options. #ClipperNation pic.twitter.com/9cWXmvp8EK
Adrian Wojnarowski: Clippers exercised third-year option for 2020-2021 on G Landry Shamet, league sources tell ESPN.
Nick DePaula: LA Clippers sharpshooter @Landry Shamet has re-signed with Nike on a new multi-year footwear & apparel endorsement deal.
In the meantime, the Clippers can take solace in the fact that the player they publicly and privately chased for a full season, that they just signed to a three-year, $103 million deal, was the best player on the floor in his debut, which just so happened to come against one of the West’s best teams. “He looked good,” Landry Shamet said. “He looked like the player he is. Best player in the world.”
Leonard said he’s still rusty as he makes his way back slowly into his NBA Finals MVP form following a long championship run with Toronto. But the Clippers — who played without Paul George, Patrick Beverley and Rodney McGruder — said they were impressed with their first on-court in-game experience with the All-Star forward. “He looked like the player that he is, the best player in the world,” guard Landry Shamet said. “He has a presence about him when he is on the floor, just feels a little different, how he carries himself, how he plays.”
