<p>SAN ANTONIO &#8212; Spurs forward Kawhi Leonard has been ruled out for Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals on Saturday night.</p><p>San Antonio coach Gregg Popovich met with reporters at shootaround on Saturday morning to confirm Leonard&#8217;s status. The All-Star forward sprained his ankle in the third quarter of Game 1 on a controversial closeout involving Warriors center Zaza Pachulia.</p><p>&#8220;I guess it&#8217;s my decision,&#8221; Popovich told reporters. &#8220;He&#8217;s not thrilled that he&#8217;s not playing, but he&#8217;s not ready, so we&#8217;re not going to play him.&#8221;</p><p>Jonathon Simmons will start in place of Leonard. Simmons had a team-high 22 points in San Antonio&#8217;s 136-100 loss in Game 2.</p><style>
