Kawhi Leonard is unfazed by Clippers’ woeful form. He thinks it is a vital challenge, however, they face one of the league’s best players in the form of Luka Doncic. The Clippers have always been a sort of bogey team for the Mavericks, but Luka has absurd numbers vs the clippers.

So, what will be the outcome? Tough to predict. The Mavericks despite their great record are a sub-par team as compared to the Clippers. Without the star power of Luka, they are 0-4 this season. Mediocre.
The Clippers are no better. Their 6-game losing streak tells you all you need to know. And they will be without the services of Paul George for the game tonight. Kawhi Leonard, their other superstar has no qualms about it.

Kawhi Leonard is unfazed ahead of the incredible Luka Doncic challenge
When asked about the challenges, Kawhi Leonard simply said,
“I think it’s still good, guys are still being positive. This is the spot where you see if you really enjoy the game and if we’re a team and see if we can dig out of this hole.”
After a brief pause, he adds, “It’s fun, it’s a good challenge for us”.
The Clippers have been on a roller coaster run. And it will be interesting to see how they shape up. Leonard seems to be unfazed. We can definitely expect a big game from him.
Luka’s absurd record vs the Clippers and why Kawhi should be ready
And to help make matters better, Luka is listed as questionable. The Mavs played without their superstar in their last game and lost.
Kawhi should be happy about this fact. The Mavericks do not look like a team with any sort of direction without their star man.
