Clippers' Kawhi Leonard: Leads team with 27 points

Leonard ended Tuesday's 120-110 loss to the 76ers with 27 points (10-20 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 5-7 FT), four rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 36 minutes.

Even with Paul George (hamstring) returning to action after a five-game absence, Leonard continued to lead the way for the Clippers on the offensive end. After a rough start to the campaign, Leonard has looked as good as ever over the past week and a half, averaging 28.6 points, 6.8 rebounds, 3.4 assists, 2.0 steals and 2.0 three-pointers in 36.0 minutes per contest while shooting 50.5 percent from the field and 91.7 percent from the free-throw line. Leonard is likely to rest for injury management purposes in the second half of the Clippers' back-to-back set Wednesday in Utah, though head coach Tyronn Lue didn't officially comment on Leonard's status for that contest following Tuesday's game, per Law Murray of The Athletic.
