The Los Angeles Clippers have had a weird last couple of games. If a Kawhi Leonard team has 120 points or more by the end of regulation, one would think it would be a win for his team given his closing skills. However, the Clips scored a combined 273 points in regular time of their last two games and lost them both.

Both games went to overtime and Leonard played a combined 84 minutes. And so the Clipper Nation must be wondering, will ‘The Klaw’ play tonight against the Minnesota Timberwolves?

Is Kawhi Leonard playing tonight vs Anthony Edwards and Co?
Ivica Zubac has been upgraded to QUESTIONABLE tomorrow vs. the Timberwolves.
Kawhi Leonard, Paul George, and Russell Westbrook are unlisted and expected to play for the Clippers.

This would be a massive boost for Clippers fans who are seeing Kawhi and Paul George both going in and out of lineups, with the former missing team’s 27 outings.
And since both of them are fit, their defensive anchor Zubac was out leaving them struggling on the board. Now that he would be back (probably) with Russell Westbrook also in the line-up Clippers should finally become a team to watch out for.

If Zubac is back, Mason Plumlee would be moving to the bench and the Clips would look something like this: –
Ivica Zubac (C), Kawhi Leonard (SF), Marcus Morris (SF), Paul George (SF), and Russell Westbrook (PG).
