You don't need Thornton's scoring. Good move.

Someone dropped him and i read Kawhi maybe back this Saturday or early next week. As for Thornton, he is on personal leave and i read he will not play on Friday. Not sure what is going on with him this year and his coach.

Should be back within a game or two and ya, grab him. He's not flashy but he's a great glue guy.

Yes he is a good player that will get u steals 3's and average around. 14 points a game. Checkout rotoworld for his injury update, he is closer to playing sooner than expected.

kawhi does not give you 14 points, more like 10 or less (only averaging 10.6ppg on the season). he does get you really good steal value and fg% value as well as solid rebounds. hes a good all around player, kind of like a poor mans iggy.

The most important thing is that he's gold in TO leagues. A super glue guy with solid %s/steals/TOs.

Mon, Dec 10

Leonard (knee) is traveling with the Spurs on their road trip but is not expected to play, the San Antonio Express-News reports.

Recommendation: Leonard has missed the last three weeks with a knee injury, which has taken longer to heal than initially expected. Leonard is working with trainers and has started to do light basketball drills. He may miss a few more weeks, so expect Gary Neal to continue to log additional minutes.

(Rotowire.com)

Are you guys sure he's only going to miss a game or 2?

The fact that he's traveling means it's probably more like 7-10 days. Not like Thornton's doing anything.
