Kawhi Leonard's Status for Clippers vs Suns Revealed

The Clippers are not messing around against the Phoenix Suns today.

The LA Clippers and Phoenix Suns face off in the final game of the regular season, and it looks like the Clippers are not messing around for this game today.

While the Suns are resting Kevin Durant, Chris Paul, Devin Booker, and company, the LA Clippers are making sure they have their biggest gun out on the floor. Kawhi Leonard will be available for the LA Clippers as they face off against the Phoenix Suns, playing in a rare back-to-back. This is only the second time this season that Leonard has played in a back-to-back if you are including the first-half performance against the Memphis Grizzlies just last week.

For the Clippers, this is a must-win game that they can also afford to lose at the same time. It's a very rare instance where if the Clippers win, they will be locked into the 5th seed to play the Phoenix Suns in the first round of the NBA playoffs. If they lose, there's a coin-flip chance of either being the 7th seed or the 6th seed. The biggest thing to watch for is the results of the New Orleans Pelicans vs Minnesota Timberwolves game that's happening at the same time as the Clippers game. The results of that game will determine how must-win this game against the Suns is for the Clippers.

Kawhi Leonard and the LA Clippers face the Phoenix Suns today at 12:30 pm PST.
