With the fourth seed in the playoffs locked up, the big question for the Clippers will be if Kawhi Leonard is ready for first-round series vs. Dallas.
Kawhi Leonard sat on the Clippers bench Sunday once again dressed in a sweatsuit, right next to Paul George, who was next to James Harden, the team’s three stars not playing in the final regular-season game before Los Angeles heads to the playoffs. The big mystery surrounds Leonard and his status for the Clippers’ first-round series against the Dallas Mavericks that will start next weekend in Los Angeles. He didn’t play against the Rockets on Sunday because of right knee inflammation.
Terance Mann was the only regular starter to start, and he was joined by Xavier Moon, Mason Plumlee, P.J. Tucker and Amir Coffey. “It’s been good for us to be able to clinch the No.4 spot and know who we’re playing and we don’t have to play these last two games and fight for our lives and stay out of the play-in or certain matchups to get to a certain position,,” Lue said. “So, I’m just glad that we were able to clinch as early as we did.
