Eligibility
Availability
Nicolas Batum has agreed to a 2-year, $9.6 million deal with the Clippers.
Fantasy Impact
Batum spent time with the Clippers and Sixers last year and will return to the Clippers on a cheap deal. He’s not a dominant offensive presence but he can contribute a little off the glass and defensively at this stage of his career.
The 76ers would like to re-sign Nicolas Batum, Kelly Oubre Jr. and Kyle Lowry.
Fantasy Impact
Philadelphia has over $60 million in cap space to re-sign players this offseason. They plan on being aggressive as well to bring in other star players around Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey.
Nicolas Batum is questionable for Saturday's game against the Grizzlies.
Fantasy Impact
Batum was a late add to the injury report. He could start if he is cleared and Tobias Harris is ruled out.
Nicolas Batum scored 19 points with six rebounds, two assists, and two steals in the Sixers 135-120 win over the Raptors on Sunday.
Fantasy Impact
Batum led the bench in scoring as well as rebounding in this game while shooting 83% from three point range. It’s nice to see a performance like this from him, but it’s unlikely to happen again soon, as he’s scored 10 or more points just twice in the month of March along with several scoreless games to boot.
Nicolas Batum is expected to play on Monday against the Kings.
Fantasy Impact
Batum was available on Sunday and did not play, but he reportedly said he didn't expect to play. He could return to the starting lineup in place of Kelly Oubre Jr. on Monday.
