Kawhi Leonard, a Los Angeles Clippers forward, is widely regarded as one of the best players of his generation. However, he has been plagued by injuries, causing him to miss numerous games with the Clippers, including the 2024 NBA Playoffs, where he only played in two games.
According to FOX Sports’ Nick Wright, Leonard’s tenure with the Clippers has been a “massive disappointment.” “I’ve never seen a team as enamored with a player who hasn’t done anything for them as the Clippers appear to be with Kawhi. His Clippers career has been a major disappointment—mainly because his body has broken down.
Kawhi Leonard joined the Los Angeles Clippers in 2019 after leading the Toronto Raptors to an NBA championship. He signed a three-year, $103.14 million contract, followed by a four-year, $176.27 million contract extension in 2021. In January, he signed a three-year, $149.51 million contract extension with LA.
Despite all that commitment from the Clippers to the elite two-way forward, they have only been as far as the Western Conference Finals during Leonard’s tenure with the team. They have also been knocked out from the postseason in each of the last two seasons. It can also be noted that Leonard has been removed from the roster of the Paris Olympics-bound Team USA roster which has become its own drama.
