Why did Kawhi Leonard leave Spurs-76ers game? Sez he cut his kneecap wide open on a nail sticking up in the court after a fall -Monroe
If he misses significant time it's gonna be severely depressing and I feel re the progression of the team. If last season is any indicator Kawhi gets better and better the more he plays, his injury earlier in the year IMO stunted that progression, and if it happens again it's like starting over again.
This team will be no fun to watch without Kawhi.

cut his kneecap wide open on a nail sticking up in the court after a fall
what the , how does an NBA court have loose nails hanging off them? I find that hard to believe.
Might've been the the wood slightly uneven & a corner caught'em!
I hope this is true, but why would you limp from a cut, and how come there was no blood I could see?
This can't be real. But I hope it is.
On a nail? Lol no. Maybe a piece of the hardwood was slightly raised and he cut it on that. Even so, the wood should be perfectly level. Weird set of events.
That makes sense. When they were working on Leonard on the sidelines, the Asian trainer was wearing gloves. That means there was blood involved. So, yeah, this is good news. The fact that it's a flesh wound and not anything structural is great.
Weird injury. Glad it's nothing serious at all.
I thought Woody, Norm and the guys put all those bolts back in the floor. Oh wait, that was the Boston Garden.
I can confirm this... Tim asked what happened and Chinese dude said cut...
That would make kawhi not only a total baby but even more dumb for that foul.
Pop's reaction was ing hilarious tbh, but least it's nothing structural.
I can't believe a nail would be on the floor, but then again, it is Philadelphia...
What's up with these shoddy NBA courts. First there was that bent rim against the Warriors and now nails sticking out.
Dumb foul but the refs should have stopped the action. If he was bleeding, that's supposed to be an automatic stoppage of play. Kawhi looked unsure what to do ... but at least now he knows he should alert the ref, not foul.
It was a mistake... Pop called up Danny, turns around and yells at Khawi... Khawi immediately fouls and Pop grabs his head
Kawhi walked to Pop and told him "I though you wanted me to foul". tbh, Pop was sorta mad, but not really screaming at him. He realized it was a misunderstanding...
When Kawhi walked to the bench, coach Bud asked him if he was allright, and Kawhi said yeah. He sat down and China man asked for a spray... At the next timeout, Tim asked what happened, and China told him it was a cut...
Hopefully it's a flesh wound like posters are claiming, btw guys, his name is Daisuke Yamaguchi, he's the former Toros AT.
Man, ing crazy. I can't believe they actually use nails on NBA courts. I thought it was all interlinking planks of wood or something.
If it's just a cut that's no big deal, unless he needs s ches. And if the cut is on a mobile part of the leg like the knee, that could take some healing before he can play. As long as it's not serious I'm ok. Kawhi seems to learn best when he has court time to figure things out. I really hope he doesn't miss any time, as he's been looking really good the last two games.
I always wondered who that Jeremy Lin looking guy was.But anyway, Kawhi seemed OK because after the initial fall he got back on the offensive end of the floor and even cut from the 3 point line in the corner to the basket running on it, so I figured he was OK. Good thing it was only a flesh wound, but damn....a nail sticking out on the court? That's not good...
If it involved s ches (which I'm guessing it did) he could still miss some time.
Knight Leonard is invincible!
Get it right...
He's Japanese.
