The Los Angeles Clippers received a bad update about Kawhi Leonard's return to the court due to his right ankle sprain.

Matt Barnes recounts a wild Clippers gambling story with Chris Paul, DeAndre Jordan, and Blake Griffin during a tense mid-air card game.

BOTTOM LINE: Orlando hosts Los Angeles aiming to prolong its three-game home winning streak. The Magic are 5-3 in home games. Orlando is fourth in the league with 18.1 fast break points per game led by Franz Wagner averaging 4.5.

Tyrese Maxey scored 39 points, Paul George had nine points and seven rebounds in his season debut and the Sixers rallied for a victory over the short-handed Clippers.

Bill Simmons proposed an interesting trade that would see the Los Angeles Clippers get some much-needed scoring help.

There is still no clear indication of when Kawhi Leonard might be healthy enough to return, as he is set to miss tomorrow's game as well.

Challenging claims against Clippers guard Patrick Beverley, his attorney highlights the need for a complete understanding of the situation.

The NBA season is an 82-game marathon, and the Clippers have time to turn it around. If they can get Leonard back healthy, anything is possible for them. Unfortunately, that is not a guarantee, and LA could be staring down the barrel of a nightmare season.
