Kawhi Leonard left the Los Angeles Clippers in Denver on Wednesday to be with his family in Los Angeles after they were evacuated from their Pacific Palisades home because of wildfires.

It has been just over nine months since LA Clippers fans have seen Kawhi Leonard play in a regular season game, but the wait for his return is finally over. After missing the first 34 games of the 2024-25 season, Leonard made his debut for LA's second game of 2025, as they host the Atlanta Hawks on Saturday night.
