Kawhi Leonard Gives Glowing Praise to New Clippers Teammate

On Sunday night, the Los Angeles Clippers matched up against the Denver Nuggets for a rematch of their 2025 Western Conference First Round series, where Denver squeezed out the seven-game series win. Over the offseason, both teams made significant changes to their 50-win rosters, positioning them to compete against the Oklahoma City Thunder.

While the Clippers fell short on Sunday night, 102-94, it was another opportunity for the organization to assess what it has in its new additions. Bradley Beal has yet to suit up, but Brook Lopez played his second preseason game, putting up an impressive performance off the bench that prompted some high praise from star forward Kawhi Leonard.
