Leonard goes through first full contact with Clips

HONOLULU -- Kawhi Leonard went through his first contact practice with the LA Clippers on Wednesday.

Head coach Doc Rivers said Leonard did full contact when he was on the floor for "probably half the live stuff."

"Kawhi practiced today," Rivers said at the University of Hawaii, where the Clippers are holding their training camp. "He was great."

Rivers even joked that Leonard looked so good he might start him in the Clippers' first preseason game Wednesday against the Houston Rockets. However, the team is playing things safe with him.
