Kawhi Leonard is coming back and he looks better than ever.
The former MVP has been off the court for more than a year as he has been rehabilitating from a serious injury.
He has already been spotted in the gym once before, looking incredibly strong and ready to bully his opponents.
A new image of Leonard running laps proves that it’s not just the upper body he’s been working on: Leonard has definitely not skipped any leg days.
The size of Leonard is quite impressive and has fans ecstatic.
The Claw is about to come back and he might be bringing a bright, brand new era for the team.
Leonard In LA
Leonard’s average before suffering a season-ending injury was 24.8 points, 6.5 rebounds, and 5.2 assists.
Without a doubt, he was the linchpin that held the Clippers together.
The team suffered greatly in his absence and it was obvious how much they needed him to be playoff contenders.
Recently, Paul George also returned from injury and the team signed John Wall as well.
Those two bits of good news and the return of Leonard have greatly enhanced the team’s chances of making the playoffs as well as the Finals.
In other words, the team has its best chance for greatness right now.
The images of Leonard in the gym only prove that.
