Clippers' Paul George: Set to resume workouts next week
George (knee) said Monday in his latest episode of "Podcast P with Paul George" that he plans to resume working out next week, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.
George missed the final eight games of the regular season as well as the entirety of the Clippers' first-round playoff series loss to the Suns in late April, but he may have had a chance to return from his right knee sprain had LA made a deeper run in the postseason. Due to the Clippers being eliminated in the first round, however, George has taken a less aggressive approach to his rehab process, though he'll take the first meaningful steps forward in his recovery beginning next week. The 33-year-old wing is expected to have a relatively normal offseason as he heads into the third season of his four-year, $176.27 million contract extension in 2023-24.

Clippers' Kawhi Leonard: Will be available for 2023-24
Clippers President of Basketball Operations Lawrence Frank said Thursday that Leonard (knee) "will be ready for next year. The ACL is firmly in tact," Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Leonard's postseason was cut short due to a torn meniscus in his right knee. The superstar forward has been plagued with injuries in recent years, failing to play over 60 games every season since 2016-17. While Leonard will reportedly be available for the start of the 2023-24 campaign, the veteran may be bound for load management again next season.

Clippers' Kawhi Leonard: Diagnosed with torn meniscus
Leonard has been diagnosed with a torn meniscus in his right knee, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
Leonard missed the Clippers' final three postseason games, and although he was recently considered day-to-day, he'll face a lengthy recovery process now that the team has been eliminated from the playoffs. The 31-year-old has battled several injuries in recent seasons and averaged 23.8 points, 6.5 rebounds and 3.9 assists in 33.6 minutes per game over 52 matchups during the 2022-23 campaign. Whether he'll be available for the start of the 2023-24 season remains to be seen.
