Russell Westbrook and Paul George have since departed, joining the Denver Nuggets and Philadelphia 76ers, respectively. When Clippers head coach Tyronn Lue announced ahead of this season that small forward Kawhi Leonard would be sidelined for a significant amount of time due to injury management, many fans prepared for the worst.

The LA Clippers are maintaining a cautious approach with Kawhi Leonard’s return to a regular workload. Head coach Tyronn Lue confirmed that the NBA star forward will continue to be under a minutes restriction when the Clippers face the Miami Heat on Monday.

Norman Powell scores 27 points, but the Clippers struggle with their shooting and can't overcome the absences of Kawhi Leonard and Ivica Zubac in loss.

The Los Angeles Clippers won thanks to a big triple-double from James Harden. After the game, Tyronn Lue had to jokes about Harden.

James Harden scored 40 points, Norman Powell added 33 and Kawhi Leonard had 18 in three quarters in their 127-117 victory over Milwaukee.
