Leonard has struggled with the condition since it flared up following his return in Game 2, where he logged 35 minutes. Despite pushing through 25 minutes in Friday's Game 3, where the Clippers fell 101-90 while being on a minute restriction, Leonard disclosed that his knee did not respond well.
On his knee, Leonard expressed confidence that he and the Clippers would work through the issue, but he admitted it didn't respond physically as everyone involved had hoped it would. He didn't play at his usual level either, recording nine points, nine rebounds, and two assists with four turnovers and only taking seven shots.
Clippers coach Tyronn Lue shared his approach to managing Leonard's condition, detailing how Leonard is working extensively to ensure he can play. Regardless, his current status places him as questionable for Game 4. Meanwhile, the Mavericks face challenges as Luka Doncic is also listed as questionable with right knee soreness. However, after Saturday's practice, Mavericks coach Jason Kidd dismissed concerns about Doncic’s condition, describing him as"good."
