The Los Angeles Clippers have some big roster decisions to make this offseason.

Multiple key players, like superstar Kawhi Leonard, are either entering the final year of their contract, deciding whether or not to exercise player options or approaching free agency.

“(Clippers coach Ty) Lue is under contract through 2029. (Darius) Garland is the Clippers’ new point guard of the future. They’re not going anywhere, a league source told The Athletic. Everything else is less clear,” wrote Law Murray of The Athletic.

What Roster Decisions Will the Clippers Need to Make?

One of the biggest questions for the Clippers this offseason will be regarding their future with Leonard. He is entering the final year of his three-year, $149.5 million contract with Los Angeles and will become an unrestricted free agent at the end of the 2026-27 season if he does not sign an extension with the Clippers.

Leonard has not revealed whether he plans to stay with the Clippers or enter free agency.

“Let me cry about this loss a little bit more. We’re going to have our discussions when that time comes,” Leonard told reporters after the Clippers’ season-ending 121-126 loss to the Warriors on Wednesday night.

Two outside factors could impact Leonard’s future with Los Angeles: the outcome of the NBA’s investigation into his allegedly fraudulent endorsement deal with Aspiration and which pick the Clippers receive in the NBA draft lottery on May 10.

One of the potential consequences Leonard could face as a result of the investigation is having his contract with the Clippers voided. However, there is reportedly no expectation this will happen, according to The Athletic.

The Clippers could land a No. 5 or No. 6 pick in the 2026 NBA Draft if the Indiana Pacers do not get a top-four pick. If Los Angeles secures a top pick, it may convince Leonard to stick around long-term.

In addition to Leonard, the Clippers have a few other players to make decisions about this offseason.

Forward John Collins will be eligible for free agency if the Clippers do not extend him. Veterans Brook Lopez, Nicolas Batum and Bogdan Bogdanović along with young players like Jordan Miller and Kobe Sanders have team options.
