Speculation about a potential setback for Kawhi Leonard has been dismissed following reports that the Los Angeles Clippers star will be sidelined indefinitely. Bad news has been a recurring theme for Kawhi Leonard since he tore the meniscus in his right knee in April 2023—the same knee that suffered a torn ACL in 2021.

The Los Angeles Clippers' best player, six-time All-Star small forward Kawhi Leonard, incurred a major injury setback, and has now been shelved "indefinitely" while he continues to recuperate from right knee inflammation, report Shams Charania and Ohm Youngmisuk of ESPN.

Los Angeles’ veteran coach firmly believes his team can weather the future Hall of Famer’s indefinite absence.
