Kawhi Leonard, who returned to his former team, the Raptors, after suffering persistent inflammation and subsequent rehabilitation in his left knee this season, the team announced today that he will be sidelined for at least another week and is expected to miss the next three games.
The 35-year-old Leonard has been exempt from action since October 24. He has only played two games so far this season, averaging 19.5 points, 7.5 rebounds and 3.5 steals per game. Although an MRI scan last month revealed no structural damage to his left knee, the seven-time All-Star’s knee problems have once again raised alarm bells.
If we look at his career, we know that he has undergone several meniscus and cruciate ligament surgeries on his right knee. Now there are also reports of injury to his left knee, due to which the fans are worried.
Leonard finished this offseasonspeedboat After a 6-year partnership, they returned to the Raptors, who had won the championship together in the past, through a trade, and immediately signed a two-year maximum salary contract worth US$115 million. However, he has missed eight games this season due to injury and the Raptors have said they will reevaluate his injury status in a week.
