"The league had it's fun, with Kawhi Leonard back, now it's our turn!": Clipper Nation revels in joy as footage of 'The Klaw' putting up shots in practice surfaces

Clippers fans can’t hold their excitement as footage of Kawhi Leonard practicing surfaces on Twitter, warn the rest of the league

The Los Angeles Clippers had a tough 2021-22 NBA season. After a rough start to the season, things got a little better as Paul George started playing incredible basketball. However, that was short-lived as PG suffered an elbow injury in early December and was ruled out for 48 games.

This led the Clippers to fall from a potential 6th seed to a play-in team. Due to the same, the organization decided against rushing Kawhi Leonard from his ACL injury. However, despite missing both their stars for a substantial amount of time, the Clippers managed a 42-40 record.

Going forward, they made some excellent moves at the trade deadline and surrounded the team with even better pieces to help Kawhi and PG. Recently, Clippers’ insider Tomer Azarly posted a video of Kawhi working out in a gym and getting some shots up.
