Spurs' Leonard Out Indefinitely To Continue Injury Rehab
NEW YORK (AP) - The San Antonio Spurs say Kawhi Leonard will be out indefinitely as he continues his recovery from a leg injury.
Leonard has played in just nine games after missing the beginning of the season because of right quadriceps tendinopathy. He also was sidelined briefly because of a shoulder injury.
Spurs general manager RC Buford said Wednesday that Leonard has made significant progress in his recovery but "this is the best approach for the next steps in his return to play."
The All-Star forward is averaging 16.2 points this season for the Spurs, who play the Brooklyn Nets on Wednesday night.
