Coffey failed to show out once again during the 2023-24 season despite playing 20.9 minutes per game across 70 games. He finished with averages of just 6.6 points, 2.1 rebounds and 1.0 three-pointers, leaving him well off the fantasy radar, even in deeper formats. Despite the loss of Paul George, the Clippers bolstered their roster in terms of depth, adding Derrick Jones, Kevin Porter, Mo Bamba and Kris Dunn. While Coffey should remain part of he rotation, it is unlikely he exceeds more than 20 minutes per game. Managers can once again overlook him outside of very deep leagues. Read Past Outlooks

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
Coffey has barely been a factor to this point in his career, and given what we saw last season, there is no reason to think anything changes moving forward. He played 50 games during the 2022-23 campaign, averaging 3.4 points, 1.1 rebounds and 1.1 assists in 12.5 minutes At this point, the Clippers are far too deep to include Coffey as an every-night part of the rotation. Even in very deep leagues, managers would be better off passing over Coffey for someone with a projected role of at least 15 minutes.
Coffey was a pleasant surprise during the 2021-22 season, making the most of his limited opportunities. He capped off a somewhat productive campaign by ending with 35 points, 13 rebounds, five assists and seven triples in the final regular season game against the Thunder. Unfortunately, much of his production came when the team was battling injuries, something that will not be the case, at least to open the season. With Kawhi Leonard fully healthy and the addition of John Wall, the team will undoubtedly be pushing for success, meaning Coffey could be spending more time on the bench than on the floor. Outside of deeper formats, he is not worth spending a draft pick on.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Mentioned in potential trade
FLos Angeles Clippers
June 21, 2023
Coffey may be headed to Washington in a three-team trade centered around Kristaps Porzingis and Malcolm Brogdon, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS Per Wojnarowski, the deal is far from being completed, but the talks are starting to heat up. Porzingis would head to Boston after opting into his $36 million option for 2023-24, and it would send Brogdon to the Clippers, while Washington would receive Danilo Gallinari, Marcus Morris, Amir Coffey and the 30th overall pick -- from the Clippers -- in the upcoming draft. Coffey has started nine of his 119 appearances over the last two years, but he's only 26 and highly skilled, making him an ideal candidate for Washington's rebuild.
