However, Kawhi lets his game do all the talking, accounting for one of the top two-way players in the league. Unfortunately, Kawhi suffered a partial ACL tear during last year’s playoffs, leading to him missing the entire 2021-22 season.
Things only got worse with Paul George suffering an elbow injury keeping him out for three months. Nonetheless, Clippers head coach Ty Lue and his troops did a phenomenal job keeping their season alive, with their ceiling being till the play-in tournament.
Recently, Kawhi was seen at the airport with his girlfriend, as the paparazzi tried quizzing him on his pick for the upcoming Finals.
