When the Clippers first lost Paul George to the Philadephia 76ers, the first person many had on their minds was Kawhi Leonard. However, Leonard has ever publicly spoken about the situation, until now.
During Clippers media day, Leonard spoke to the public for the first time since the 2024 NBA Playoffs, where he opened up about the team losing Paul George. While losing George is a big impact for Leonard, he doesn't believe it'll make his game any harder.
