Andrew Greif: Kawhi Leonard is now listed as questionable to play because of a non-COVID illness, per the team. -via Twitter @AndrewGreif / January 2, 2023
Andrew Greif: Ty Lue wouldn’t say definitively that Kawhi no longer has a minutes restriction but he acknowledged after Kawhi played 33, 34 and 36 min. in his last three games that he’s basically playing the equivalent of a normal game right now. That’s allowed Lue to stagger him and PG more. -via Twitter @AndrewGreif / December 31, 2022
Josh Lewenberg: Powell: “Kawhi is Kawhi, no matter what.” He did say that Leonard has been a bit more interactive with his teammates, joking around and whatnot, with the Clippers than he was in Toronto, where he was “all business” -via Twitter @JLew1050 / December 28, 2022
