Kawhi Leonard is on the brink of a Los Angeles Clippers return, having been listed as questionable for Thursday’s game against the Detroit Pistons.
Leonard had previously been listed as out, having not played since October 24, dating back 12 games due to stiffness in his surgically-repaired right knee.
The 31-year-old small forward missed all of last season after rupturing his ACL during the 2021 playoffs.
Leonard played 21 minutes in each of his two games this season, averaging 12.5 points, 6.5 rebounds and 2.0 assists.
The Clippers, who are 8-7, have also listed All-Star Paul George (left-hand contusion) as questionable for the Pistons game.
