It was clear as day that the Los Angeles Clippers needed more firepower on offense and better players on defense. The Dallas Mavericks are on the verge of sending home the trio of Russell Westbrook, James Harden and Paul George. Although 48 minutes is a long time, many changes need to be made to force the Mavericks into a Game 7. However, the return of Kawhi Leonard could be a big help. Will he be able to play in this crucial NBA Playoffs game?
The answer is no. Kawhi Leonard will be out for Game 6 of the Mavericks series between Clippers, according to Ohm Youngmisuk.
Kawhi Leonard remains out for Game 6. Terance Mann is questionable with a right lower leg contusion.

The player is still struggling with a knee injury that kept him out for most of the series. This injury also caused him to miss the Clippers’ last regular season games. In addition, the anterior cruciate ligament that ruptured in 2021 also continues to be a problem because it flares up when he gets fatigued.
The Clippers drafted him in the third game. But the Mavericks picked him apart and highlighted his lack of lateral quickness.
