On the Clippers’ injury report, Leonard (hip contusion) and George (illness) were both noted as questionable to play.

Late in Wednesday’s game, Mavs forward Grant Williams delivered a strong blow to Kawhi Leonard, who was noticeably concerned in the hip area. Due to a left hip injury, he is expected to be evaluated at game time against Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s team. Following the game, reporters questioned Leonard about his hip, to which he replied, “good.”
Due to a medical condition, Paul George was unable to attend the first half of the back-to-back set in Dallas. He traveled with the squad for this road trip, but he did not attend the game. This is undoubtedly something he has been fighting for a while because he also managed the illness during the team’s victory over the Pacers on the road. Given that he was unable to attend last night’s game, it is unclear how much better he is feeling. He will probably also be a game-time decision.
Despite playing through the illness that had previously been recorded on the Clippers injury report against the Mavericks, Norman Powell revealed after the game that he felt “terrible.”It’s encouraging for his chances of recovering from the illness since he is not mentioned in the report for tonight’s game.
