Tyronn Lue makes it official, Kawhi Leonard is out for
Game 5 on Wednesday. (Luka Doncic will play for Dallas.)
Better the Clippers go without Leonard than have him at 50% or whatever he was in Game 3. – 2:08 PM

Two weeks ago, @tim_cato and I had a convo to preview the series. It was fun.
And so now with a deadlock through four games, we got to talking again.

Clippers won two games without Kawhi, Luka is off from deep and Kyrie picks it up drops 40… Sixers need a game where they’re not so reliant on Joel in g5.
(If not an actual third star). – 10:26 AM

More on this storyline
Moments later, Clippers president of basketball operations Lawrence Frank made himself available to discuss Leonard’s status for Sunday’s game. The news was expectedly bad: Leonard was inactive for Game 4, and has an uncertain timetable going forward. “When’s he coming back? Can’t tell you a timeline,” Frank said. “I wish I had a crystal ball. It will just basically (be) until he can show that he can make all the movements that he needs to make, that’s when he will come back.” -via The Athletic / April 29, 2024
