Clippers list Kawhi Leonard as out for Game 5 vs. Suns

LA Times  

Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard, in white T-shirt, has not played in Games 3 or 4 of the playoff series against the Sun because of a sprained right knee. Clippers star Kawhi Leonard did not participate in practice Monday because he was receiving treatment on the sprained right knee that has sidelined him the last two games of the team’s first-round series against the Phoenix Suns, coach Tyronn Lue said. Asked whether receiving treatment left open the door for a return in Tuesday’s Game 5 in Phoenix, Lue said that “there’s always a possibility.” The Clippers later listed Leonard as out for Game 5 on the evening injury report. “You adjust to them, teams doubling Kawhi, teams putting a lot of attention to Paul, and now it’s a very different-looking offense,” Plumlee said.
