Los Angeles Clippers star Kawhi Leonard is anticipated to make his long-awaited season debut this Saturday against the Atlanta Hawks. After recovering from a knee injury that sidelined him for most of last season, Leonard has been upgraded from ‘out’ to ‘questionable’. Head coach Tyronn Lue expressed optimism about Leonard’s return, stating, “He’s been working hard and it would be great for him to get back on the court with his teammates.” Leonard has not played since the 2021 playoffs, where he suffered a partially torn ACL. Fellow Clippers star Paul George also highlighted the impact Leonard’s return will have on the team, saying, “We’ve been waiting for him to get back. His presence is irreplaceable, and it will elevate our game.” The game is set to be held at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, where fans are eagerly anticipating the return of their superstar. The Clippers have a 2-2 record so far this season, and Leonard’s performance is seen as critical for their playoff aspirations.
