Will fans be able to see Clippers star Kawhi Leonard back on the court against the Trailblazers after a 15-month absence?

Last season, the Los Angeles Clippers entered the Play-In tournament with the ninth seed. Unfortunately, they would fall short against the Minnesota Timberwolves.

The heroism of Paul George and the Clippers’ supporting cast was not enough to see them through. However, things might have ended differently were it not for one notable absence.

Kawhi Leonard missed all of last season after suffering an ACL injury. An injury that sadly saw him miss more than 15 months of NBA action!

That said, Kawhi now looks fit as a violin. As such, many are wondering if he will appear in any of the Clippers’ preseason games.

Will Kawhi Leonard face Damian Lillard and the Portland Trailblazers in the next preseason game?

The Los Angeles Clippers are set to take on the Portland Trailblazers later tonight. All eyes are on this game as fans are hoping to see the return of Kawhi Leonard.

The Clippers missed Leonard badly last season as the franchise’s hopes of a championship run were left high and dry due to his injury.

Fortunately, for Clippers fans around the world, The Klaw is expected to return tonight against Damian Lillard and the Blazers. Kawhi was seen warming up early before a Clippers practice session!

Here are some of Kawhi Leonard’s warm-ups before today’s Clippers practice.
