Kawhi Leonard finally made his long-awaited return to the NBA after being injured since the first round of last year's NBA playoffs. However, even though Leonard's back, he's still not quite in the superstar form he was last season - it's going to take some time.

Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard, who made his season debut on January 4 after spending most of the first half working his way back from an offseason knee procedure, has yet to play more than 21 minutes in any of his first three outings this season.

Kawhi Leonard, after his third game back with the Clippers since rehabbing his knee, said he's no rush to break free of the minutes restriction he has been playing under.
