Narcisse Ngoy Joins Clippers as Draft-and-Stash Center
The Los Angeles Clippers acquired French center Narcisse Ngoy after the Atlanta Hawks selected him with the No. 57 overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft. The 21-year-old played for Poitiers in France's ELITE 2, averaging 9.8 points, 11.6 rebounds, 1.2 assists, and 2.4 blocks in 24.6 minutes while shooting 68.0 percent from the field. Ngoy also signed with Auburn for the 2026-27 season, so this profiles more like a draft-and-stash play than an immediate fantasy situation. His rebounding and shot-blocking are the fantasy draw, but managers may need to wait before seeing those numbers tested in an NBA rotation.

Baba Miller Selected by Clippers at No. 36 Overall in NBA Draft
The Los Angeles Clippers have selected forward/center Baba Miller with the No. 36 overall pick during Wednesday's NBA Draft. The Clippers need depth after trading away Ivica Zubac this past season. Miller won't fix the problem, but he should be a benefit as a rebounder, which is something the Clippers desperately need after moving on from Zubac. The Cincinnati product averaged 13.0 points, 10.3 rebounds, and 1.2 blocks as a senior this past season. There is certainly room to improve after finishing with a 52.9 percent from the floor as a senior. His biggest asset will be his rebounding, but it's unlikely that Miller has a consistent role in the rotation right away.

Yanic Konan Niederhauser Not Expected to Be Ready for Start of Next Season
Los Angeles Clippers center Yanic Konan Niederhauser (foot) is not expected to be ready for the start of next season, Law Murray of The Athletic reports. In March, the rookie big man was diagnosed with a Lisfranc injury to his right foot and underwent season-ending surgery. Unfortunately, Niederhauser must also sit out the start of the 2026-27 campaign. Recently, it was reported that the 23-year-old is looking at a 5-8-month recovery timeline. While Niederhauser didn't get much burn during his first year in the Association, he flashed plenty of potential. Across 41 appearances, he averaged 4.3 points and 2.9 rebounds in 10.3 minutes per game.
