Kawhi Leonard, one of the most important stars of the Los Angeles Clippers, has not played a single game in the 2024/25 season yet. However, new information provides a ray of hope for the team's followers as his return could materialize before Christmas.

According to journalist Bill Simmons, sources close to the team ensure that Leonard is in the final stage of his recovery and progressing positively in his physical preparation.

"My contact at the Clippers told me that Kawhi will be back before Christmas. He is progressing, working intensely, and it seems he will be ready soon," Simmons pointed out.

The forward, known for his ability to make an impact both offensively and defensively, has faced various physical issues in recent years, limiting his time on the court. Now, Leonard's potential return represents great news for a team aiming to solidify itself in the competitive Western Conference and contend for the NBA title.

The expectation of his return not only fuels the hopes of fans but also those of a squad that needs his leadership and experience to reach the pinnacle. If Leonard manages to be fit before the holiday season, the Clippers could gain a significant boost this season.

Will the Clippers be able to count on their star in time?

The focus remains cautious as the team and coaching staff prioritize the player's long-term health. Nevertheless, everything indicates that Kawhi Leonard's anticipated comeback is drawing closer.
