The Los Angeles Clippers are gearing up for a matchup against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Friday, but like seemingly every team in the NBA right now, the Clippers have been struck by the injury bug.

With just a 1-3 record, the Clippers are looking to get back on track after a loss to their crosstown rivals the Los Angeles Lakers, but they'll have to be doing it shorthanded.

The majority of the injuries the Clippers are dealing with aren't new, as most of the list is their players that have been out since before the start of the regular season, but there is hope that at least one player will be making a return.

Forward Rui Hachimura (quadriceps) is PROBABLE for Friday night's game. Hachimura didn't appear in Wednesday's contest against the Lakers due to left quad soreness, but it seems that Hachimura is on the mend, which should give the Clippers a big boost to their scoring with Hachimura's three point shooting abilities back on the floor.

Guard Max Strus (foot) remains OUT for Friday's game. Strus has yet to appear in a game for the Clippers this season after suffering a partial tear in the plantar fascia of his right foot and while he's progressing well, he won't be ready in time to take on the Timberwolves.

Forward Brandon Ingram (Achilles) is OUT. Ingram is still recovering after undergoing surgery in May for partially torn Achilles tendon in his right heel. Ingram has returned to some court activity on his road to recovery, but he's not ready to be back on the court quite yet. 

Guard Bradley Beal (knee) is OUT against the Timberwolves. Beal hasn't appeared in a 2026-27 regular season game for the Clippers yet as he's been dealing with right knee inflammation that flared up as Ingram worked his way up to playing shape for the regular season. There's no clear return timeline for Beal at this point.

Center Yanic Konan Niederhauser (foot) remains OUT. Niederhauser has been out since he suffered a Lisgfranc ligament tear in his right foot near the end of last season and also doesn't have a clear timeline for his return at this point.

Guard Jordan Miller (shoulder) underwent surgery to repair a torn left rotator cuff before the regular season began and isn't expected to be back until after a re-evaluation of his injury sometime in late-January to early-February.
