Leonard and the Clippers have gone through a variety of medical treatments to control the inflammation since the end of last season. Lawrence Frank, president of basketball operations, said at the start of training camp that the inflammation had gone down significantly since last postseason, but that the team wanted to get the franchise star’s knee to 100% and would take every precaution. When asked if he could have to deal with the inflammation coming up for the rest of his career, Leonard said that is a possibility but that the medical staff has got a better handle on it and is trying to ensure that isn’t the case . -via ESPN / October 17, 2024
