Dunn racked up three points (1-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt), one rebound, one assist and two steals over 16 minutes during Saturday's 120-101 loss to the Nuggets in Game 7 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.
Dunn shifted to the bench for Saturday's do-or-die encounter, a move that yielded very little in terms of tangible production. Despite being a constant on the defensive end of the floor, Dunn's lack of offensive upside proved to be a major issue. Across the seven-game series, Dunn scored in double digits only twice while scoring no more than six points in the remaining five games.

The defensive-minded guard recorded three or more steals 22 times during the 2024-25 campaign and four or more swipes eight times, making him a menace for opposing teams.

Rotowire
Dunn ended with seven points (3-5 FG, 1-1 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and one steal in 19 minutes during Sunday's 103-101 loss to the Thunder.
James Harden suffered quad and ankle injuries late in this contest, putting his status in jeopardy for Wednesday's game against the Knicks. Dunn, along with Ben Simmons, Bogdan Bogdanovic and Norman Powell, would be candidates for increased usage if Harden misses time.

Clippers' Kris Dunn: Rare scoreless outing Friday
Rotowire
Dunn amassed zero points (0-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal over 22 minutes during Friday's 121-98 win over the Hawks.
Dunn was held scoreless for the first time since the Jan. 19 win over the Lakers.

Clippers' Kris Dunn: Another three steals Wednesday
Rotowire
Dunn finished Wednesday's 123-115 win over the Pistons with eight points (3-3 FG, 2-2 3Pt), four rebounds, six assists, one block and three steals over 30 minutes.
Dunn continues to rack up the defensive numbers, having recorded 37 steals over his past 13 games. Norman Powell has missed significant time of late with two separate injuries, allowing Dunn to step back into the starting lineup. While his offense remains sporadic at best, he should continue to be an elite wing defender on a team hunting as many wins as possible down the stretch.

Clippers' Kris Dunn: Productive outing in loss
Rotowire
Dunn contributed 13 points (6-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt), five rebounds, four assists and five steals over 35 minutes during Monday's 106-97 loss to Detroit.
Kawhi Leonard (knee) and Norman Powell (knee) sat another game out and are presumably day-to-day, while Ben Simmons was held out for maintenance. Dunn is typically a low-usage player who expends most of his energy on the defensive side of things, but he stepped up for the shorthanded Clippers on Monday. He finished one steal shy of his career-high mark of six, and this was the eighth game of his career with at least five steals.

Clippers' Kris Dunn: Posts career high in defeat
Rotowire
Dunn produced five points (2-5 FG, 1-1 3Pt), seven rebounds, six steals, five assists and one block across 31 minutes during Thursday's 116-110 loss to the Bucks.
Dunn recorded a career-high mark in steals Thursday, albeit in a losing effort. The 30-year-old has been fairly quiet on the offensive end of late. Over his last 10 outings (five starts), Dunn has averaged 3.8 points, 4.1 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 2.3 steals while shooting only 39.5 percent from the field in 21.1 minutes per contest. However, he's doing enough defensively to make a case for a roster spot in deeper fantasy leagues.
Dunn will start Thursday against the Jazz, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.
Dunn joins the starters for the third consecutive game, taking the place of Norman Powell (knee). In 31 starts this season, Dunn averages 6.3 points, 3.3 rebounds, 2.9 assists, 2.0 steals and 0.4 blocks over 24.1 minutes.

Coach Tyronn Lue said he couldn't remember the specifics of Dunn's injury but said Dunn should be available for Thursday's matchup with the Jazz. Dunn logged 14 points (5-6 FG, 4-4 3Pt), three rebounds, five assists and five steals in 21 minutes of action Wednesday. With Kawhi Leonard (rest) slated to sit Thursday, Dunn could be in line for another sizeable workload if he's able to suit up

Clippers' Kris Dunn: Starting against Memphis

Dunn is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Grizzlies, independent NBA writer Justin Russo reports.

Clippers' Kris Dunn: Posts three steals in return
Rotowire
Dunn (knee) tallied two points (1-5 FG, 0-4 3Pt), five rebounds, four assists and three steals in 18 minutes Tuesday in the Clippers' 122-97 loss to the Lakers.
Dunn was back in action for LA after missing the team's previous seven games due to left knee injury management and saw more playing time than either of the other two reserve guards in head coach Tyronn Lue's rotation, Kevin Porter (13 minutes) and Terance Mann (12 minutes). Though he's shooting just 41.8 percent from the field this season, Dunn's ability to serve as a secondary ballhandler and wreak havoc on the defensive end should allow him to maintain a steady role on the second unit. However, he'll likely struggle to carve out enough playing time to profile as anything more than a streaming option in deeper fantasy leagues for steals and assists on lighter game days.
