Kawhi Leonard was planning to return Saturday for Spurs-Suns.

Things aren’t going to plan.

Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN:

If Leonard returns Tuesday, that’s fine. San Antonio should still beat Devin Booker-less Phoenix, regardless. Even if the Spurs lose, they’ve built plenty of cushion without Leonard.

But, man, this injury remains vexing.
