Last year, PG13 missed more than half the season due to an elbow injury, while Leonard missed the entire season due to an ACL injury. Despite the blows, the team looked really good and finished the regular season as the eighth seed in the West. However, they failed to get past the play-ins and fell to the Pelicans. Many believe the LA Clippers are going to take a leap from that setback as they have a stellar roster for the next campaign. To add to their strengths, the team has brought in John Wall, who is a proven point guard in the league. Kendrick Perkins has been a big believer in the team. He stated that along with talented players, the team also have a great coach in Tyronn Lue. Speaking about them on NBA Today, he said: "I think the Clippers had the best offseason over any team in the NBA when you talk about the wing position, the most important position I already dove into that. But I'm looking at the Clippers, I have them as my favorites to win it all, I mean when you think about the coach in Tyronn Lue, LeBron James since Tyronn Lue has been the head coach of the Clippers, LeBron James hasn't beaten him one time and so that says a lot." [sic] The LA Clippers showed great composure last leason- pulling off massive comebacks even without Kawhi Leonard and Paul George. Now with both of them back along with John Wall, it would make the Clippers a tough team to defeat.

However, it was only during the 2020-21 season that they made a deep run in the playoffs- reaching the Conference Finals. They failed to make it to the postseason last year due to injuries, but next season is going to be a big one for them.

The team also has players like Reggie Jackson, Norman Powell and Robert Covington who can be sensational on their day. However, other teams like the Golden State Warriors, Boston Celtics, and Milwaukee Bucks are also looking solid.
