At some point, players are going to go on vacation right?

Even KL who's been rehabbing the past year?

Or they have obligations in connection with endorsement deals. Like Curry has been going to China in the summers for his UA deal.

I think so. Camp is still 3 months away.

There’s this now.

Leonard’s usual off season routine is to rest until first of July. Sometimes he shows up for the first couple games in summer league. Then mid July to mid August he does his 4 week training/workout. Usually with his trainer. The next few weeks right before camp he invites players to join him.

Of course this summer isn’t the norm. I’m guessing he’s locked into training earlier than usual with rest sprinkled in.

It seems forever since he’s played but it still hasn’t been a year since his surgery. I think it was July 13 or thereabouts.

I know it’s shooting drills but he’s clearly ready (or close) for 5 on 5. I know not everyone is a fan of workout videos but I really like what we’ve seen from Leonard so far. Yeah it’s small samples but I don’t see any reason he’s not ready for camp and the season. Minutes restriction to start of course.

In the replies Farbod said he plans to tell Kawhi during camp and his hope is to get them together for dinner.

https://www.si.com/nba/clippers/news/exclusive-dr-j-details-relationship-with-favorite-player-kawhi-leonardfav

"Kawhi is my favorite NBA player," Erving said. "Absolutely."

Dr.J has mentioned in the past that he loved Kawhi Leonard's game, even going all the way back to his San Antonio days. Erving was a big fan of Tim Duncan, so naturally, he loves Kawhi Leonard's work ethic and demeanor. Despite being such a huge fan, Erving hasn't really had an intimate sit-down situation with Kawhi yet.

“I’ll tell you what, it’s kind of like a mutual admiration," Erving said. "I really admire him, I haven’t sat down or had dinner with him or lunch or anything like that. We connected All-Star weekend during the top 75 [celebration]. It’s always just a cordiality there because he’s a favorite guy that I like to watch in the NBA. So I’ve gone on record and saying that, I don’t know if he’s heard about it or not."
