Injury Report: LA Clippers vs Denver Nuggets

There are multiple major All-Stars listed on the report.

Kirby Lee-USA TODAY Sports

The LA Clippers and Denver Nuggets face off in what may be a potential playoff matchup tonight, but there will be a major player missing.

The Clippers have two players listed on their injury report: Kawhi Leonard and Josh Primo. Kawhi Leonard is out with right knee soreness and this will be the second game he's missed due to the injury. It's a bit alarming that Leonard is being ruled out a day before the game as well. Josh Primo is out due to a left ankle sprain that occurred recently. Paul George, James Harden, and Russell Westbrook are all listed as available against the Nuggets.

The Denver Nuggets have five players listed on their injury report: Nikola Jokic, Jamal Murray, Aaron Gordon, Vltako Cancar, and Zeke Nnaji. Nikola Jokic is probable with left hip inflammation and right wrist inflammation, Jamal Murray is questionable with right knee inflammation, Aaron Gordon is probable with a right foot strain, Vlatko Cancar is out with left knee surgery, and Zeke Nnaji is doubtful with right adductor tendinosis. Nikola Jokic has been available for the past few games while Jamal Murray has been out.

While the Clippers have a two-game lead over the 4th seed, they're still not entirely out of the woods yet. A win against the Nuggets tonight would go a very long way for LA, but that'll be tough with how they've been playing without Kawhi Leonard.

The LA Clippers and Denver Nuggets face off at 10:00 p.m. EST tonight.
