Kawhi Leonard (back-to-back) unavailable for Clippers versus Hawks
Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Kawhi Leonard (sore left knee management) will not play on Wednesday versus the Atlanta Hawks.
What It Means:
Leonard is sitting out the second leg of the Clippers' back-to-back, per usual. Paul George (hamstring) and Patrick Beverley (groin) have also been ruled out, so look for Landry Shamet and Lou Williams to step up on offense. There could also be more opportunity for Derrick Walton Jr., Patrick Patterson, and Rodney McGruder.
The Clippers and Miami Heat are tied for the second-highest implied total (119.75 points) on Wednesday's 12-game slate, per numberFire's NBA Heat Map.
