Default Could a leak in the clutch master cylinder cause gears to grind?

i recently bought a 00 gsr and turns out there's a leak in the clutch master cylinder. There was no grinds at first, but it's been about a month since i bought it and now it grinds here and there at 3rd if i shift fast at 2500 rpm or higher. it feels a little bumpy when i shift it to first sometimes too like it's about to grind. i'm really hoping that the syncros haven't given out. But could a leak cause the gears to grind?

If the clutch isnt fully engaging/disengaging it will cause it to crunch if the revs arnt matched.

Fix the leak first and bleed the lines then you will know.
