Clippers' Kawhi Leonard (knee) out for Game 5 Tuesday
Los Angeles Clippers star Kawhi Leonard (knee) will not play in Game 5 of the team's playoff series against the Phoenix Suns on Tuesday.
What It Means:
Leonard will unfortunately miss his third straight game of the Clippers' playoff series with the Suns as he continues to rehab his knee sprain. The Clippers are currently down 1-3 against the Suns heading into Game 5.
Norman Powell has been starting with Leonard sidelined, and has a $6,900 salary on FanDuel for Tuesday's game. Our models project him to score 28.7 fantasy points in that contest, with 18.1 points, 3.6 rebounds, and 2.2 assists.
