Leonard will receive a second opinion on his dislocated left shoulder, Mike Richman of The Oregonian reports.

Analysis:

Coach Terry Stotts was unwilling to put a timetable on Leonard's return until he gets his shoulder reexamined later in the week, so it's safe to rule him out for Thursday's game against the Clippers. It will mark the fifth straight game Leonard has missed due to the injury, which has opened up additional opportunities for Al-Farouq Aminu and Maurice Harkless. Considering that Leonard previously missed seven games in November after dislocating the same shoulder, it's very possible he could require a more elongated recovery period this time around.
