LA Clippers Coach Reveals New Kawhi Leonard Injury Update

LA Clippers star Kawhi Leonard has missed every game this season due to right knee injury recovery. The Clippers have gone 8-7 in his absence, but recognize that their ability to maximize this roster is dependent on his health.

Clippers head coach Ty Lue has given weekly updates on Leonard when asked about his progress, and while Lue’s answers have been mostly insignificant, he did reveal a small bit of news before Monday’s game against the Golden State Warriors.

According to Lue, Leonard has begun shooting “a little bit” but will be out all week. Ruling Leonard out for week-long stretches has been the standard approach for Lue, and does not indicate the star forward is eyeing a return any time next week.
