Kawhi Leonard Expected to Return Sunday vs. Cavaliers After Missing 10 Games

Kawhi Leonard is expected to return to the Los Angeles Clippers' lineup on Sunday against the Cleveland Cavaliers, according to ESPN's Shams Charania and other sources. Leonard has missed the last 10 games due to a sprained right ankle and foot, during which the Clippers went 1-9. He will need to successfully complete his pregame routine Sunday. Prior to his injury, Leonard averaged 24.4 points on 50.5% shooting and 5.7 rebounds in six games. His return is timely, as he should be available for a critical NBA Cup game against the Lakers on Tuesday. The Clippers are currently 4-11.
