Lawrence Frank said the Clippers are 'really excited' to have stars Kawhi Leonard and Paul George 'fully healthy' entering training camp after both struggled with injuries last season.
"We're still trying to maximize Kawhi and PG's window and take advantage of it," Frank said."We've had consistent ongoing conversations with both of them [since they were extension eligible] and their representatives, and at the appropriate time we're hopeful that they remain Clippers."
The Clippers highly value head coach Ty Lue, who has two years remaining on his contract. But Lue did not receive a new deal, and Leonard and George have yet to sign extensions. While Frank said"we all have something to prove," he insists that the lack of new deals for Leonard, George and Lue is not"a warning shot" entering the season.
Frank was asked if the Clippers are in a wait-and-see mode for the possibility of improving the team via trade. Much of the Clippers' success this season will hinge on their health. Besides both of his stars being healthy at the start of camp, Frank said that Leonard wants to play and will"attack everything" when healthy. Frank was asked how the NBA's new player participation policy, which states that teams must ensure no more than one star player is unavailable for the same game, will impact how the Clippers and Leonard approach back-to-back games.
