Leonard missed the final three games of the Clippers' opening-round series loss to the Dallas Mavericks because of a knee injury.<\/p>\n<p>Embiid played through a knee injury during the 76ers' first-round loss to the New York Knicks. Meanwhile, Haliburton injured his hamstring in the Pacers' Conference Finals defeat to the Boston Celtics.<\/p>\n<p>Embiid and Haliburton were on track to attend Olympic training camp. Leonard was the question mark, though Kerr has been in contact with his camp for the last few weeks and believes the Clippers star will be able to compete.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We've been monitoring this all along,&#8221; Kerr said via <a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/olympics\/story\/_\/id\/40445519\/kerr-confirms-kawhi-leonard-rest-team-usa-report-camp\">ESPN<\/a>. &#8220;We have been in touch with Kawhi and his people, and he's been working out now the last couple of weeks.
