Kawhi Leonard's injury health has been a topic of concern.
For a fourth straight year, Kawhi Leonard hasn't been healthy in the NBA Playoffs. As a result, the Clippers have underachieved in the NBA Playoffs for a fourth straight year. Every year, it seems like an uncertainty on whether or not Leonard will play, and this year was no different.
“Look, if we had a game today, Kawhi would not be able to play," Lawrence Frank said during an exit interview."He’d be out. We’re still dealing with the inflammation. As I said the prior two times, the encouraging thing is this seems big picture, minor in nature, in that it’s not a structural thing. I think the reality is that we’re going to continue to try to learn how to manage his right knee. He's had two surgeries on his knee, but he’s shown that he can be durable.
