Ivica Zubac seemingly spoils Kawhi Leonard’s return to Clippers

Ivica Zubac may have spoiled some significant Los Angeles Clippers injury news Wednesday.

With the status of forward Kawhi Leonard still up in the air, Zubac essentially revealed after the team’s shootaround that the plan was for Leonard and Paul George to finally play together on Wednesday.

Ivica Zubac hinted that Kawhi Leonard and Paul George will make their debut together today: "Finally. It'll be great. We're really good with only Kawhi. We're really good with only PG. You put them two together, it's gotta be good. We'll see it tonight. But I'm really excited."

Leonard hasn’t played since Nov. 13 as he battles a knee issue. That came at a bad time, as George recovered from shoulder issues to make his Clippers debut the next night. That means the two just haven’t quite been healthy at the same time.

Zubac certainly can’t be accused of being misleading about an injury — which his coach got fined for — when he’s going off-message like this.
