With his return to the court presumably less than a month away, LA Clippers star Kawhi Leonard is taking a short break from offseason training. Spotted at New York Fashion Week, Leonard is enjoying some time on the East Coast for fashion and the US Open.
Not long after he was seen attending a fashion show, Leonard was spotted at the US Open playing tennis.
The star forward has been working hard all summer to rehab his ACL injury and all reports indicate that he has made incredible progress. If he participates in preseason action, which is the current expectation, Leonard’s return to competitive basketball would be less than a month away.

The Clippers begin their preseason in late September, shortly after training camp concludes. Their regular season begins soon after, when the team faces the Los Angeles Lakers on October 20. There is an understandable level of excitement surrounding the return of Kawhi Leonard, as the star forward missed all of last season with his ACL injury.
For now, after weeks of constant training and rehab, Leonard is taking time out to enjoy the latter part of the summer. It’s always fun to peek into Kawhi’s life, since he doesn’t share any of it himself. Sporting a San Diego parent hat, Leonard will take on New York this week for some fashion and tennis.
