The team is giving up 122.3 points per game with him sidelined - up 13.6 points on the number allowed when he’s been in the team.

Leonard is averaging 24.3 points, 4.1 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.7 steals this season. He’s also averaged 36.1 minutes per game this season, meaning the coaching department will need to decide how to best fill the hole left by his absence.
