Fantasy Impact:

Leonard recently underwent a knee operation in the offseason, and this statement at media day was likely in response to the uncertainty regarding his timeline. If Leonard can stay healthy, he will likely see a bigger role on the Clippers with Paul George's departure, raising his fantasy stock. However, due to his injury history, managers should proceed with caution when drafting him.
