Leonard was one of the few bright spots on offense for the Clippers, but things didn’t go well during his time on the floor. They were outscored by 33 points during his 33 minutes. It was a bitter end to a strong year for Kawhi. He didn’t make his season debut until January, but he ended up playing 37 games and was still healthy for the postseason. Though he’ll be 34 at the start of next season, he’ll be healthy heading into the offseason, which is an excellent development for him. Injuries will continue to push him down draft boards, which could make him an excellent value in fantasy basketball next season.

After scoring 28 in a critical Game 6 victory, it appeared that Harden was ready to have a big Game 7. Unfortunately, it just didn’t happen. The assists were great, but he didn’t step up as a scorer in the way that a star should. Harden will be 36 at the start of next season, but there is no indication that he’ll slow down during the regular season. Managers should draft him with confidence next season, even if he continues to struggle during the postseason.

Zubac wrapped up a breakout season with yet another double-double, but it wasn’t enough to keep the Clippers alive. He was a finalist for the Most Improved Player award, and he averaged 16.8 points, 12.6 rebounds and 2.7 assists per game, all of which were career highs. He had a Yahoo ADP of 86.8 this season, but he will certainly go significantly earlier in drafts next season. He provided third-round value in nine-cat leagues this season.

Powell put forth his best scoring performance of the postseason on Thursday, where his contributions helped the Clippers extend the series to a seventh game on Saturday. On the heels of his most productive scoring season as a professional, the 10th-year pro electrified the Intuit Dome crowd in the third quarter before nailing a three-pointer late in the fourth quarter to help seal the deal. Powell was one of three Clippers players to score at least 20 points in this game. He will be counted on to deliver once more in the series finale in Denver on Saturday.

James suffered the injury when collided with Donte DiVincenzo in the fourth quarter of the closeout Game 5. The recovery time for the injury is 3-5 weeks, but James will have no need to rush back to the court after the Lakers were eliminated from the playoffs. It’s unclear if he’ll return for a 23rd season, but if he does, he should be recovered from this latest injury prior to training camp.
