The Clippers' dynamic duo of Kawhi Leonard and Paul George has 12 games ahead that won't be played on back-to-back nights as they look to make a move.

With Kawhi Leonard and Paul George sitting out, the Cleveland Cavaliers jump out to a 40-point lead before cruising to a 122-99 win over the Clippers.“We’ll be tested against six playoff teams,” George said of the trip, which began with aThe roster that begins that 12-game stretch likely won’t look the same as the one that ends it.
