Tonight is a tough ask for the Clippers with no Kawhi Leonard and fresh off the news that Bradley Beal is out for the season.

Hoping for big nights for the likes of Cam Christie and Ivica Zubac.

[Clippers UK @ClippersUK]

Kawhi Leonard will miss his 5th straight game due to injury tonight against the Nuggets.

The Clippers are 3-2 with him and 0-5 without him this season. In those five games, he has outperformed his previous season in nearly all metrics.

The struggle without him continues. 📉

[Clippers UK @ClippersUK]

The Clippers start to the season has not been pretty. 📊

Opponents are shooting 39.4% from deep. 🏀

Top-10 turnovers per game. 😶‍🌫️

Bottom-10 assists and offensive efficiency. ❄️

23rd defensive rating (top-3 last szn) 📉

What’s going wrong for LAC? 🤔

[James Warner @JamesWrner]

Never seen a head-loss like it on Spurs twitter.

Rate Eze a lot but could you imagine if we got close to signing someone actually world class.

Better profiles out there for Spurs in the remaining window.

[James Warner @JamesWrner]

@jsexton24 It’s the year of the bird after all 😉

[Josh Sexton @jsexton24]

The LA Clippers start another season without Kawhi Leonard tonight and there's no timeline for his return.

However, the mystery around Kawhi's injuries and load management stems from him being let down by the San Antonio Spurs, so I can sympathise with the secrecy to a degree.

[James Warner @JamesWrner]

Bit of analysis ahead of tonight’s Intuit Dome opener between the Clippers and Suns.

Expecting the Suns to be more of an offensive force this season, whilst the Clippers should be in and around the top 10 for defense.

[Clippers UK @ClippersUK]

Clippers vs Suns 2023-24 per game rankings. ⛵️🌞

Both low 3PA teams last season, however Suns were 6th in preseason (44.0), Clippers were 30th (30.6).

LAC one of best offensive teams last season, expect regression without Kawhi + PG.

Both similar in DEFRTG, LAC will improve (2nd in preseason with 94.2).

[James Warner @JamesWrner]

Tottenham.

[James Warner @JamesWrner]

0.98 is Mohamed Salah’s xGxGA90..

Logically, Spurs may have signed the next Salah in terms of expected output.

[Michael Caley @MC_of_A]

Brennan Johnson's xG+xGA/90 improved from 0.21 to 0.79 under Ange, an improvement 3.76 times over

logically, Odobert's 0.26 xGxGA90 translates to 0.98 next season

[James Warner @JamesWrner]

Min-Hyuk Yang, the Son successor – 2024 Stats, via @FotMob.

Non-penalty xG – 0.23
Successful dribbles – 1.07
Touches in opposition box – 3.71
Expected assists (xA) – 0.06

7 Goals
2 Assists
24 Starts

���️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[James Warner @JamesWrner]

Potentially a brilliant move by Spurs.

Long term successor to Son for ability and retaining the Korean market.

Demonstrated excellent 1v1 ability and finishing in the K-League and should demand a decent loan to develop.

Will count as a HG player in 2 years too.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[Paul O Keefe @pokeefe1]

Spurs in negotiations for Min-Hyeok Yang. Not done but ongoing #THFC

[James Warner @JamesWrner]

I’m fluent in French now. 🇫🇷

[Clippers UK @ClippersUK]

Nico mentions he had as many as 17 options in free agency, but wanted to make a quick decision. Says it's a good thing going back to LA as "it's a project I like".

[James Warner @JamesWrner]

Really excited to release the View from the Clipper podcast over on @ClippersUK alongside the brilliant @jsexton24.

Stay tuned for more content over the coming weeks!
