Warriors planning for Kawhi Leonard to play Game 3

SAN ANTONIO — Kawhi Leonard is officially listed as questionable for Game 3 on the Spurs’ injury report, but the Warriors are preparing as if he’ll be available.

“I’m 100 percent sure he’s going to play,” Kevin Durant said after practice Friday. “I haven’t talked to anybody, but that’s just my gut.”

Added Draymond Green: “There’s no doubt in my mind that he’ll play.”

Leonard missed Game 6 of the Western Conference semifinals against Houston after spraining his left ankle in the fourth quarter of Game 5. He re-sprained it twice in the third quarter of Game 1 of the West finals against Golden State on Sunday, the second time when he landed on the foot of Zaza Pachulia after a jump shot.
