The Los Angeles Clippers signed Kawhi Leonard and traded for Paul George and instantly became one of the teams to beat in the NBA. But thus far, that hasnāt translated into a lot of success.
On paper, they have arguably the best duo of two-way players in the league, but theyāre constantly hurt, and have failed to even reach the NBA Finals because of that.
Thatās why Zach Lowe of ESPN reports that the Clippers are unlikely to sign them to a contract extension in the next couple of months, and that could fuel even more trade rumors around PG-13.
Clippers May Not Give Kawhi Leonard And Paul George A Contract Extension
āThe biggest subplot in the NBA that not enough people are talking about is Paul George and Kawhi Leonard with the Clippers, being extension eligibleā Lowe said. āIn Kawhiās case in July. I think in Paul Georgeās case in September.ā
āBecause I just donāt think, based on what Iāve heard, that if those guys walk in the door and ask for four-year max extensions, I donāt think the Clippers are just giving them to them,ā Lowe added.
Now, whether theyāll look to trade them or will work out a new contract with a hometown discount remains to be seen, but it seems like this could be the beginning of the end of this era.
