Knee problem continues to bother Kawhi Leonard and the star remains uncertain of a return to the Clippers’ playoffs against the Mavs
O Los Angeles Clippers won the Dallas Mavericks in game four of the playoff series this past Sunday, the 28th, tying everything at 2-2, but without counting on the talents of Kawhi Leonard, who suffers from an injury. The star was left out of the match because he was once again feeling the inflammation in his knee that has been bothering him in the postseason. It was the second match in which the winger had to watch from the bench due to the injury.
After missing the last seven games of the regular season due to the same problem, Kawhi also sat out the first duel of the series. He even returned in the second game, last Tuesday, the 23rd. Even though his return was celebrated, his performance left something to be desired and raised doubts about his real physical state.
“To be honest, everyone at the Clippers wants Kawhi Leonard to get over this injury. He is very important to us. However, I can’t give you an exact timeline. I wish I had a crystal ball, but that’s not the case. What I can say, then, is that from the moment he can move more naturally, when there are no more limitations, he will play. Until then, we don’t have an idea.”stated Frank Vogelteam coach, about the player’s return.
