Kawhi Leonard will sit out his second game this season due to load management and miss a marquee matchup against reigning MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo on Wednesday night when the LA Clippers face the Milwaukee Bucks.
Wednesday’s game is the first of a back-to-back set for the Clippers at Staples Center. Leonard is expected to play against Portland on Thursday night.
The Clippers’ official designation for Leonard’s not playing is “injury/illness, load management (knee),” according to the NBA’s injury report.
