It was expected that Kawhi Leonard could return to play with Los Angeles Clippers by the end of the year but that's not going to happen. The Angelenos are starting a tour that the player will not attend. Meanwhile, he will train with the San Diego Clippers, the G League affiliate team.

It is worth remembering that Kawhi got injured at the end of the last season and could hardly play (what he played was at a shameful level) in the Clippers' elimination against Luka Doncic's Dallas Mavericks. Later, he was selected to represent the United States at the Paris Olympics, but when the coaches saw his physical condition, they sent him home. Thus, he has not yet debuted in this 2024/25 NBA season and as of today, we do not know for sure when he will, despite a couple of weeks ago when the Clippers leaked that it would be soon.

With his recent history, it's difficult to predict his return and in what condition. Last year, he played several months of good basketball, but it seems clear that it's a pipe dream at this point to think he can play full seasons while being healthy.
