The good news for the Clippers is that their main player has participated in 27 of the team’s 28 games this year and has been a major contributor to their 17-11 record. His play and well-being have been essential to the Clippers’ hopes of going farther in the 2023–24 campaign.

Good news for the Clippers: their star player has played in 27 of the 28 games they have played so far this season, and he has greatly contributed to their 17-11 record. His performance and overall health have been crucial to the Clippers’ aspirations of winning more games in the 2023–24 season.

After he was injured on the floor during the Clippers’ game against the Dallas Mavericks, Kawhi Leonard has been battling a hip problem. It was unclear at the time if he was hurt. Despite his initial assurances to the media following the game that he was alright, the injury was considered serious enough that he would miss the next game against the Thunder due to a hip contusion.

In order to close out the season with a win over Boston on Saturday, LA will be hoping he can suit up.

George has been healthy thus far this season, but he has missed two games because of illness. Similar to Leonard, he has contributed to LA’s success on both sides of the court, so the Clippers should be happy to see PG13 in good condition.
