Late last week, an ESPN report noted Kawhi Leonard’s targeted return for Tuesday, Dec. 12 vs. the Dallas Mavericks. It would be the end of a 27 game absence, which spanned the entire 2017-18 season for the San Antonio Spurs, due to a quad injury.
On Monday night, the Spurs all but confirmed Leonard’s return for the Mavericks game. He was listed as “probable.” The same for Danny Green, who missed Saturday night’s game, with a groin injury.
Outside of them, Kyle Anderson was ruled out, with a left MCL sprain. This will be the fifth game he misses.
