He sit out all next season?

What a terrible contract/signing that turned out to be...

He will never play another full season for whatever career he has left----which will probably be til the end of this current contract.

He quit after the last ring & contract
I forgot where i heard or read it----but someone was comparing his injury to Brandon Roy and he really shouldn't be able to play anymore but has tried to push through it. Not sure I buy it---but is something to think about.

Could be true

Not like the team is on is that great either

Paul George has always been overrated

Los Angeles Clippers SF Kawhi Leonard has been diagnosed with a torn meniscus, per The Athletic’s Shams Charania. The Clippers were eliminated by the Phoenix Suns in the first round of the 2023 NBA Playoffs in five games after a 136-130 loss on Tuesday night. It’s another early exit for L.A. and a disappointing end to the season for Leonard, who was averaging 35 points per game prior to being shut down.


It’s an interesting offseason for the Clippers and Leonard. This is yet another season ended with an injury and it’s likely he’ll need another surgery on his right knee. It could mean the Clippers hold Leonard out at the start of next season. He’s entering what could be the final year of his deal with Los Angeles after he signed an identical contract to Paul George. Both players will make $45 million next season and have player options for 2024-25 at $48 million, which you’d think each picks up.


The Clippers could look to move both Leonard and PG-13 and start a rebuild of sorts. Los Angeles would only be in contention if PG and Leonard were both 100% healthy, which may never happen again frankly. The Clippers are stuck with most of the same core until at least after next season. So L.A. could just run it back with this same group and see if it comes together. Otherwise, it makes sense to see if PG-13 and Leonard walk/request a trade before or during next season and going from there. SG Norman Powell is under contract through 2025-26.
