Kawhi Leonard, Paul George Are 'Fully Healthy' Ahead Of Training Camp 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Thu Sep 28, 2023 5:30 am

Kawhi Leonard and Paul George are entering training camp "fully healthy," according to Los Angeles Clippers president of basketball operations Lawrence Frank.


"Both are fully healthy. I think both have had extremely productive offseasons, and obviously our two best players are totally invested in doing special things for the Clippers," said Frank on Wednesday.


Leonard and George each have a $48 million player option for the 2024-25 season, and both are eligible to sign four-year extensions worth $223 million.


Frank also addressed the possibility of the Clippers upgrading the roster. James Harden was rumored as a trade target, though there was no traction on a deal.


"You are always looking for ways to get better, both individually, as a team. ... From our standpoint, we'll always be aggressive trying to find ways to improve the team," added Frank.

They’ll be injured at some point during training camp.

And that is exactly the reason they could actually be a surprise team this year. Because everybody (including me) think they will anyways get injured at some point.

theyve been healthy in the past and underperformed. its revisionist history to blame all their failures on injuries. even when fully healthy, this team has yet to look like the class of the league.

And just like that, they are hurt.

Kawhi got hurt opening his new iPhone 15. The plastic wrap is tight.

PG got hurt taking off his necklace. The ice heavy and he re-injuried his shoulder.

They both on the IR and are day to day…
