Leonard (back) traveled with the Clippers for their two-game road trip, which begins Thursday in Chicago.
Our View
Leonard exited Tuesday's 118-100 loss to the Timberwolves in the second quarter due to back spasms and was unable to return, but the injury apparently isn't serious enough to take him out of consideration for the road trip. According to Jack Maloney of CBSSports.com, head coach Tyronn Lue said that Leonard took part in the team's shootaround Wednesday and responded well to treatment overnight, but it's unclear if he'll be available Thursday. Since Thursday's game marks the front end of a back-to-back set, the Clippers may prefer to save Leonard for a matchup with the Pelicans on Friday that carries important playoff implications for both clubs.
