Kawhi Leonard back vs. Nuggets?
Leonard returned home to Los Angeles on Monday to receive more treatment. Coach Ty Lue said the team first learned of Leonard’s right knee soreness after a 130-118 win over Charlotte on Sunday. His status for Thursday’s game against Denver, which is the start of a home back-to-back for the Clippers, is uncertain. “We hope so,” Lue said when asked at the team’s morning shootaround whether Leonard will be back against the Nuggets. “We’re not sure right now, but that is what we are leaning towards.”

Two games in a row that the Kings, as a team, have stepped up to make up for all the injuries.
There’s no “it’s just the Jazz” excuse tonight. Even without Kawhi, these Clippers are dangerous, and the Kings have been dominating them from the top of the roster on down. – 12:04 AM

Asked Tyronn Lue about teams eating Clippers defense up with Kawhi out and whether more Russell Westbrook minutes can help with that, esp. tonight against D Fox
Also, more on defensive breakdowns at Charlotte (basically, Miles Bridges got too comfortable) pic.twitter.com/rIKBhrF3ya – 1:51 PM

Some matchup rankings headed into Clippers at Sacramento for Tuesday night
Kawhi Leonard has only hit 30 points once since the Grammy Trip ended. James Harden has not hit 20 points since popping up on injury report after Houston game.
