Report: Injury Update on Kawhi LeonardLA Clippers star Kawhi Leonard suffered a face contusion against the Pelicans

Kawhi Leonard - Appears to have avoided concussionThe Clippers reportedly have minimal concern about the facial injury Leonard suffered in the third quarter of Saturday's 131-110 loss to the Pelicans, according to Law Murray of Th...
ImpactLeonard compiled 12 points (4-16 FG, 0-6 3Pt, 4-6 FT), six rebounds, four assists and two steals in 27 minutes before departing with 4:05 remaining in the third quarter and sitting out the entire final period. The Clippers attributed his removal from the contest to a facial contusion, and Murray relays that Leonard was experiencing a headache following the game, but that's reportedly the extent of his side effects. Assuming he continues to pass concussion tests and the facial bruise isn't presenting too much pain, Leonard will have a good chance at being available for L.A.'s next game Monday versus the Bulls.

Nicolas Batum - Increased usage loomsBatum totaled 13 points (4-6 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), one rebound, one assist and one steal in 20 minutes during Saturday's 131-110 loss to New Orleans.
ImpactBatum played well in the blowout loss, and if Kawhi Leonard's (face) injury forces him to miss a few games, Batum will emerge as the primary beneficiary. A potential Leonard loss is a lethal combination with Paul George (leg) unavailable through the end of the season, making Batum instrumental in an effort to keep pace in the playoff hunt.

Bones Hyland - Scores team-high 18 pointsHyland amassed 18 points (7-12 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds and seven assists over 24 minutes during Saturday's 131-110 loss to the Pelicans.
ImpactHyland was productive off the bench with 27 minutes on the floor and was the lone bright spot against the Pelicans' relentless scoring barrage from beyond the arc. The VCU product is experiencing a usage spike in the wake of Paul George's (leg) injury, making him a potential streaming option as the regular season comes to a close.

Jonas Valanciunas - 17/13 double-double in lopsided winValanciunas produced 17 points (8-18 FG, 1-2 3Pt), 13 rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal over 32 minutes during Saturday's 131-110 victory over the Clippers.
ImpactValanciunas extended his double-double streak to five games, even though his shot conversion rate was well below his season average of 55.1 percent. Valanciunas' effort in the paint inches him ever closer to a double-double average for the season. Over 71 games, the big man has averaged 14.4 points and 9.9 rebounds.
