Kawhi Leonard Ruled Out for Clippers vs Spurs Game

Injury Update and Game Impact for Tonight's Matchup

Los Angeles Clippers Star Forward Kawhi Leonard will not play in tonight's game against the San Antonio Spurs due to a right foot injury, the team announced.

Leonard, who is averaging 24.8 points, 6.5 rebounds, and 5.2 assists per game this season, has been dealing with the injury since last week. He missed the Clippers' last game against the Golden State Warriors.

The Clippers are 1-1 without Leonard this season. They lost to the Warriors but defeated the Chicago Bulls.

With Leonard out, Paul George will likely move into the starting lineup and take on a larger role. George is averaging 23.6 points, 6.8 rebounds, and 5.3 assists per game this season.

The Clippers are hoping Leonard can return to the lineup soon, but there is no timetable for his return. The team is currently in fourth place in the Western Conference with a record of 24-13.

The Spurs are in 12th place in the Western Conference with a record of 14-23. They have lost four of their last five games.

The Clippers are favored to win tonight's game, even without Leonard. The Spurs have not won in Los Angeles since 2019.

The game will tip off at 7:30 p.m. PT at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles.
