Clippers’ Kawhi Leonard impresses during workout in front of Team USA leaders

Following Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard’s workout in front of several significant people last Friday, they all left the session saying that he is scheduled to report for Team USA training camp on Friday in Las Vegas, according to people with knowledge of the situation not authorized to speak publicly on the matter.

Practice begins Saturday and Leonard is expected to participate, according to one person.

According to the people, Grant Hill, managing director of USA Basketball, and Steve Kerr, head coach of the U.S. Olympic team and the Golden State Warriors, wanted to see how Leonard was coming along after missing time last season because of a right knee problem.
