Clingan closed with 24 points (9-12 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 5-6 FT), 11 rebounds, one assist, three blocks and one steal over 29 minutes during Wednesday's 132-119 victory over Phoenix.
The double-double was the second straight for Clingan, while the 24 points were a season high for the third-year center. Clingan also recorded multiple rejections for the fourth time in seven games, and so far in 2026-27, he's averaging 12.0 points, 10.6 boards, 2.4 blocks, 1.6 assists and 1.0 threes while shooting 56.9 percent from the field and a surprising 46.7 percent from long distance.
5 d ago
Clingan delivered 17 points (8-16 FG, 1-3 3Pt), 18 rebounds, three assists and four blocks across 32 minutes in Monday's 118-110 win over the Nuggets.
Clingan delivered an outstanding fantasy performance, grabbing nine offensive rebounds while providing elite rim protection against Denver's frontcourt led by none other than Nikola Jokic. Clingan's combination of rebounding volume and shot-blocking makes him an appealing option at center, and even though he's not likely to hover around the 15-point mark on a regular basis, his floor remains very high due to his two-way contributions.
Nov 1
Clingan ended Saturday's 112-90 win over the Jazz with four points (1-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds and one block in 15 minutes.
Clingan played a season-low 15 minutes during Saturday's victory due to foul trouble. He's had a bit of a slow start to the season, averaging 8.6 points, 9.0 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 2.0 blocks and 1.0 three-pointers in 22.3 minutes across five appearances. Despite the tough outing, Clingan still offers plenty of fantasy upside with solid contributions in scoring, rebounds and blocks for the 4-1 Blazers.
Oct 30
Clingan supplied 11 points (5-9 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 0-1 FT), eight rebounds, one assist, five blocks and one steal over 29 minutes during Thursday's 124-103 loss to the Grizzlies.
Clingan turned in arguably his best performance of the season despite the loss, chipping in across all major categories, including a season-high five blocks. While it has been a slow start to the season, Clingan is currently a top-80 player in standard leagues, averaging 9.8 points, 8.8 rebounds, 1.3 three-pointers and 2.3 blocks in 24.2 minutes per game.
Oct 29
Clingan had his team option exercised by the Trail Blazers, the team announced Thursday.
This move locks in Clingan's roster status for the 2027-28 season. He should continue operating as Portland's starting center going forward, though veteran Robert Williams poses a significant threat to Clingan's playing time.
