The Toronto Raptors have had a lukewarm start to the 2026-27 NBA season, currently sitting at 3-3. The Raptors have been without Kawhi Leonard for the last several games due to a knee issue, and unfortunately, that will continue on Monday in what would have been Leonard's return game against the Los Angeles Clippers on the road.
Here's everything we know about the Clippers vs Raptors injury situation ahead of tipoff.
Raptors vs Clippers latest injury update
It's a busy injury report for both sides in this game.
“The Toronto Raptors list Kawhi Leonard (knee injury management) as out for tonight at LA. Scottie Barnes (left hip) is questionable. Jakob Poeltl, out last night due to left shoulder bursitis, also questionable. Max Strus (foot) is available, exactly 4 weeks after the team said he'd be out that amount of time. Derrick Jones Jr. (right knee) is out,” reported Law Murray of The Athletic on X, formerly Twitter.
Both teams are coming out on the second leg of a back-to-back in this one. The Raptors lost to the Los Angeles Lakers on Sunday evening, while the Clippers lost to the Stephen Curry-less Golden State Warriors.

In any case, tipoff between the Raptors and Clippers is slated for Monday evening at 10:00 pm ET from the Intuit Dome in Inglewood.
