Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Kawhi Leonard (rest) will not suit up for Thursday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans.
No surprise here on the second end of a back-to-back. Paul George (shoulders) is expected to make his season debut on Thursday, so he seems like the logical choice to replace Leonard in the starting lineup.
Kawhi is averaging 51.2 FanDuel points per game. numberFire's models project him for 25.4 points, 6.5 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 1.8 steals, 0.7 blocks, and 2.1 triples per contest over the rest of the season.
