Latest Kawhi Leonard injury update revealed by Ty Lue

Kawhi Leonard has not played for the LA Clippers since April 26, 2024, during Game 2 of the Western Conference Quarterfinals. Fans have been eagerly awaiting news of his possible return because even the smallest news is hard to come by.

Before taking on the Minnesota Timberwolves on Friday, Clippers head coach Ty Lue revealed the latest update on the injured superstar.

“He’s making good progress,” Lue said. “He’s been able to get on the pitch and do some things on the pitch, which is good for us. “So we’re still checking every box, making sure he’s doing the right things and his training is really good and making sure that we won’t let him move on to the next step until he checks those boxes. “So our medical staff have done a great job making sure he’s 100% fit when he comes back.”

So far this season, Leonard has not practiced with the LA Clippers at all. Still, the undermanned team has found a way to be legitimately competitive without him, posting a 12-9 record that includes several good hits. It’s clear that the team has the potential to emerge as a true contender if Leonard returns healthy.

For now, the LA Clippers just need to keep doing what they’ve already been doing this season while Leonard recovers.
