With their loss to the Mavs last night the Clippers are eliminated in 6 games. They go into the offseason with a lot of questions so lets see how it’s shaping up for them:
Cap Space
Cap Holds
Deadlines
Draft Picks
1st Round
2nd Round
Active Roster Contracts
Outlook The Clippers go out in the first round with another year of Kawhi missing playoff games. They go into the offseason unsure of which key players outside of Kawhi will still be on the team next year. Harden is an unrestricted free agent, Paul George and Westbrook have player options, and they don’t control a first rounder until 2030.
They will likely try to run it back since they extended Kawhi already and are moving to the new $2 billion Intuit Dome and will need to sell tickets. They will have some optimism since there were stretches where the team looked like contenders but despite Kawhi playing the most regular season games since the 2016-2017 season he wasn’t healthy when it mattered most again leading to a back to back first round exits for the Clippers.

My favourite part of the Clippers season that time Harden contested a shot by Kawhi (I think it was a 3) in the middle of a regular season game (3rd quarter - not even garbage time). I thought that was so random and funny. Will Kawhi win another championship?
