Kris Dunn Heads Into Year 10 With the Clippers, Fully Healthy
newsroom · 1 h agoKris Dunn is back with the Clippers for the 2026-27 season after playing all 82 games last year. The 32-year-old guard is not on the injury report as camp approaches. He returns as a steady defensive presence and secondary ball-handler off the bench.
Where Dunn Fits on the Roster
Kris Dunn enters his 10th NBA season wearing No. 8 for the Clippers. He's listed at guard, 6-3 and 205 pounds, and turns 32 this season. Dunn came up at Providence before starting his pro career, and a decade later he's still logging real minutes in LA's backcourt rotation. He played the full 2025-26 season with the Clippers, so there's no team change to track here, just a veteran guard back for another run. His game has never been about scoring volume. It's built on defense, ball pressure and making the right read, which is why he's kept a roster spot deep into his career even as his role stayed limited in the box score.
Last Season's Numbers
Dunn played all 82 games in 2025-26, a full and healthy season by any measure. He averaged 27.2 minutes, 7.3 points, 3.3 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.6 steals per game, with 0.2 blocks and 1.4 turnovers. Those steal numbers stand out. A 1.6 steals-per-game average over 82 games points to a guard who's consistently active on the ball and disrupting passing lanes, not just a body filling minutes. The scoring and rebounding lines are modest, but that's by design for a role that leans on defense and setup work rather than shot creation. Nothing here is a career year, but it's a full, durable season logged from start to finish.
Shooting and Efficiency
Dunn shot 47.6 percent from the field last season, 37.4 percent from three and 76.5 percent from the line, adding up to a 58.1 true shooting percentage. For a low-usage guard, that's an efficient mix, especially the three-point number, which is well above league-average volume shooters' floor. His usage rate sat at 12.2 percent, confirming he's not asked to create much offense on his own. The free-throw percentage backs up that he can be trusted in end-of-clock or end-of-game situations if fouled. His plus-minus for the season was 0.2, essentially neutral, which tracks with a role player who isn't leaned on to swing games offensively but holds his own when he's on the floor.
Health Report
Dunn is not on the injury report heading into the 2026-27 season. There's no injury history to note for him at this point. Combined with his 82-game appearance total from last season, the picture is a guard who's been fully available and shows no red flags going into camp. For a player who turns 32 this season, staying off the injury list and having played every game the year before is a meaningful marker of durability. There's nothing in his file right now suggesting any limitation on his workload or role as the Clippers build out their rotation for the new season.
What's Next
The 2026-27 season is about to get underway, and Dunn is set up to open it in the same role he closed out last year in: a defensive-minded guard who logs steady bench minutes for the Clippers. With no injury concerns and a full, efficient season behind him, there's no reason to expect a change in what he brings to the roster. The opener is coming, and Dunn's track record from 2025-26, 82 games, strong shooting numbers and a defensive profile built on steals, is the clearest signal for what to expect once the games start counting again.
