Kawhi Leonard (knee) out for Clippers on Saturday
Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Kawhi Leonard has been ruled out of Saturday's game against the Atlanta Hawks with a knee injury.
What It Means:
Leonard entered the day as questionable and has been downgraded to out with a left knee contusion. He will miss his second consecutive game with this knee injury. Doc Rivers said that Leonard's knee felt more pain in the Rockets game on Wednesday, in which he suffered the knee contusion. He also said that the return and availability of Paul George hasn't factored into the decisions to sit Leonard.
numberFire's models project Leonard for 38.4 minutes, 25.4 points, 6.5 rebounds, and 3.6 assists per contest over the rest of the season.
