He has started in each of the Clippers' last 21 games, but if he's unable to play for the second leg of the back-to-back set Saturday, then Kobe Sanders and Nicolas Batum figure to be the top candidates to enter the starting five.

Logs double-double in narrow win Leonard notched 24 points (10-25 FG, 0-8 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 12 rebounds, five assists, two blocks and one steal in 38 minutes during Monday's 103-102 victory over Golden State.

Impact Leonard was able to muster 24 points despite missing all eight of his three-point attempts. The cold streak from downtown is probably the only bad mark you can give Leonard recently. He's enjoying some of the best basketball of his 14-year career, and it couldn't come at a better time for the Clippers, who are struggling to stay relevant in the West. Modnay marks his second double-double in the last five games, and he's averaged 35.8 points, 7.6 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 2.8 steals, and 1.8 blocked shots over the five-game span.
