Injury update: Patty Mills (rest), Danny Green (rest), Tiago Splitter (rest) and Kawhi Leonard (rest) will all miss tonight's game @ Houston
— San Antonio Spurs (@spurs) April 14, 2014
The 23 year old will likely miss the remainder of the preseason and is even questionable for opening night against the Dallas Mavericks on October 28. Head coach Gregg Popovich spoke on the subject before his team squared off against the Miami Heat on Saturday:It is going back and forth between the two [eyes]. It's crazy. Kawhi is still out for 10 more days.MySanAntonio.com reports that the infection is not serious, but the Spurs training staff is still acting cautiously.
Leonard is entering his fourth year in the league and has steadily improved his stats through each season. Through the 2013-14 season, he averaged 10.9 points and 5.8 rebounds in 28.0 minutes per game—a year that resulted in his first NBA championship, the Spurs fifth overall.
