Kawhi Leonard Questionable for Game 2 Against Mavericks Amid Knee Injury Concerns

The Los Angeles Clippers are eagerly awaiting the return of their star player Kawhi Leonard as they prepare for Game 2 of their playoff series against the Dallas Mavericks. Leonard, who has been sidelined for nine games due to inflammation in his right knee, participated in a practice session on Monday, but his status for Tuesday night remains uncertain. Coach Ty Lue emphasized that Leonard's involvement in the practice was limited to non-contact drills as the team focused on fine-tuning their game.

With Leonard's return hanging in the balance, the Clippers are hoping for a positive update before tip-off. The two-time NBA Finals MVP's absence has been felt, but his potential comeback could provide a significant boost to the team as they aim to expand their 1-0 series lead. As fans hold their breath in anticipation, all eyes will be on Leonard's recovery and whether he'll be ready to make his long-awaited return to the court in Game 2.
