Kawhi Leonard had only logged two games this season before a crisis back home gave him another reason not to play. According to the latest intel from Chris Haynes, Leonard is stepping away from the Clippers once again to be with his family after the mass evacuations within Los Angeles.

The star’s presence could turn a deep, defensive-minded Clipper team into a problem in the playoffs — but they’ll have to keep him on the court.

Clippers star Kawhi Leonard will return from a knee injury and make his season debut Saturday against the Atlanta Hawks.
