LAS VEGAS --LA Clippers president of basketball operations Lawrence Frank said the team was "very disappointed" with USA Basketball's decision to replace Kawhi Leonard on the Olympic team roster last week.

In a statement released last Wednesday, USA Basketball implied that Leonard wasn't on the team in a move that was influenced by the Clippers and Team USA officials after seeing how the two-time Finals MVP was moving and playing during USA Basketball's camp in Las Vegas last week.

Frank said Leonard did not suffer a setback with his surgically-repaired right knee.
