Kawhi Leonard was sensational in Monday's matchup against the Denver Nuggets, helping the team tie the first-round series with a 105-102 road win. Leonard already had 21 points by halftime and finished as the leading scorer in the contest with 39 points on 15-for-19 shooting. He went 4-for-7 from deep, including a buzzer-beating triple to end the first half. The two-time Finals MVP also produced a high-level defensive effort, notching two steals and one block. Additionally, he had three rebounds and five assists in 39 minutes. Leonard has always been a strong playoff performer and looks set to have another impressive series. With two games played, he is shooting 70.6 percent against the Nuggets, averaging 30.5 points with 2.5 steals.

Kawhi Leonard (knee) has been tagged as questionable for Tuesday's matchup against the San Antonio Spurs. Last week, Leonard played both legs of a back-to-back for the first time this season, but the Clippers once again have two games in as many nights, and the team may want to give the injury-prone star some time off. If Leonard exits the lineup on Tuesday,
Norman Powell and
Bogdan Bogdanovic will take on more significant roles on the offensive end. Meanwhile,
Derrick Jones Jr. and
Nicolas Batum will have the opportunity to earn more playing time, with one of them likely stepping into Leonard's role in the starting unit.

Kawhi Leonard (knee) won't suit up for Sunday's meeting with the Cavaliers. The Clippers play back-to-back contests, so Leonard will likely be back on Monday night against the Orlando Magic. In the meantime,
Nicolas Batum is the favorite to take over at the four spot, with the veteran averaging 8.9 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 1.5 steals in eight starts during the 2024-25 campaign.
Bogdan Bogdanovic should also be more involved on the offensive end behind
James Harden and
Norman Powell.

Kawhi Leonard (rest) will be unavailable to play against the Miami Heat on Wednesday. Leonard will have the night off to rest due to right knee injury management. The Clippers are in the second half of back-to-back games, so it is no surprise the 33-year-old is out. He finished with 29 points, eight rebounds, three assists, two steals and one block in 36 minutes of work during a 127-120 loss to New Orleans on Tuesday. With Leonard sidelined, Derrick Jones,
Bogdan Bogdanovic, and
Amir Coffey are players who should see extra scoring opportunities during Wednesday's contest.
