Kawhi Leonard is healthy going into the offseason for the first time since 2020, having played just 37 games before the Los Angeles Clippers lost in the first round of the playoffs. The team with the oldest roster in the league is staking its future on the two-time Finals MVP and All-Star James Harden.

The Los Angeles Clippers got rocked by the Denver Nuggets in Game 7 on Saturday, losing 120-101 in a blowout that was nowhere near as close as even that wide margin would indicate. With under nine minutes to go the Clippers trailed by 35.

In fact, Harden's letdowns aren't just reserved for Game 7s. Up against any elimination game, the former league MVP is liable to go missing. Likely knowing this bit of history about himself, Harden also went missing after the game, declining to speak with media about the loss.
