CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Kawhi Leonard had 16 points, including an 18-foot step-back jumper with 1.4 seconds left, to lift the Clippers to a 119-117 victory over the Charlotte Hornets on Monday night in his return from a right ankle sprain. Paul George also came back from a strained hamstring to score 19 points along with seven assists for the Clippers, who snapped a two-game losing streak. Reggie Jackson and Nic Batum each had 13 points, and John Wall added 12 points and 12 assists off the bench.Kelly Oubre had 28 points and P.J. Washington bounced back from an 0-for-13 shooting night on Saturday night to add 26 for the Hornets. Washington missed a fadeaway jumper as time expired that would have tied the game.
Getting Leonard, George and Kennard back should provide a huge boost for the Clippers moving forward. Leonard had been out since Nov. 21, George since Nov. 19 and Kennard since Nov. 15 with a calf strain.The Hornets outscored the Clippers 26-8 to start the third quarter behind eight points from Terry Rozier to take an 80-71 lead.
Charlotte carried a six-point lead into the fourth quarter, but it didn’t last long as Kennard was fouled on a 3-point basket and converted the free throw. Then Batum, a former Hornet, knocked down a 3-pointer from the corner to give the Clippers the lead.
