LA Clippers' Kawhi Leonard ruled out for Game 1; status for remainder of series vs. Suns uncertain

PHOENIX -- LA Clippers All-Star Kawhi Leonard has been ruled out of Sunday's Game 1 against the Phoenix Suns because of a sprained right knee, and his status for the remainder of the Western Conference finals remains uncertain.

Leonard did not travel with the team to Phoenix on Saturday. Clippers coach Tyronn Lue said he is not sure yet of Leonard's status for Game 2, and that he has to prepare as if Leonard isn't available game to game until the star returns.

"I'm not sure," Lue said when asked if Leonard could join the team at some point on this trip.
