    Default Think Kawhi Leonard will be as good as he used to be?

    I wonder how good Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard will be this season.

    Never sure about how players will be after they've missed a lot of time due to injury.

    Jumper should still be damn near automatic, so I doubt offense will be an issue. Question will be his defensive level, and of course, if he can stay on the court.

    Yes, in fact I think he will be better. The Clippers have a great team of robotic engineers that will upgrade his hardware and circuitry so that he jumps higher and hits 3s with more accuracy.

    But he sat out an entire season, plus a shitload of other games throughout his career. This method has without a shadow of a doubt been proven to extend a player's career, and his body is therefore younger than his official age.

    Yup, basically pulled an MJ taking a mid-career retirement to preserve body mileage. Which makes it not even very impressive if he dominates at this point, he really has no excuse not to.

    I would expect a less explosive, but stronger version of him. Maybe he moves more towards a PF role?

    Yes.

    Kawhi has significantly less mileage due to not playing as many NBA games and can spend time rehabbing and getting stronger.
