After missing all of the 2021-22 season recovering from a torn ACL, the Clippers’ star strikes an upbeat chord during media day ahead of his return to the court.
LOS ANGELES — What’s better than a baby’s laugh?In that case: Kawhi laughing > some silly baby.What that means: If the Clippers’ season goes as they hope it will, we have incontrovertible evidence that Leonard’s amusement is equally as reliable a harbinger as that six-more-weeks-of-winter groundhog.
On the media day that preceded that franchise’s first championship, a reporter asked Leonard what he wanted people to know about him: “I’m a fun guy,” said Kawhi – speaking precise Kawhi, to-the-point and unironically ironic. He’d replaced his Clippers’ jersey – in which he’d posed beside Paul George, both of them mean-mugging for photographs but smiling between seemingly each camera click – with his New Balance-branded attire.
Then came a healthy chuckle, because it’s a moot point now, one of life’s “coulda, woulda, shoulda”s as he put it.And it’s not only Leonard’s laugh that portends the possibility. George has his own experience with a major injury, having missed the majority of the 2014-15 season recovering from a broken leg. He remembers the mental hurdles involved in his return, trying not to even think about the prospect of being injured again.
