Los Angeles Clippers star Kawhi Leonard is going viral this Friday without even trying.
Leonard played well for the Clippers in this year’s playoffs, averaging 25.0 points and 7.6 rebounds per game against the Denver Nuggets. Unfortunately, he wasn’t really healthy for the regular season. The two-time NBA champion appeared in just 37 games.

Clippers president Lawrence Frank has made it clear that he’s confident in Leonard’s ability to lead the franchise. However, he needs to be more reliable throughout the season.
“There’s another level for him out there that he’s going to get to next year,” Frank said. “IÂ think looking at next year that we can be better with more games from Kawhi.”
While we’re not sure what the future has in store for Leonard, he sent NBA fans into a frenzy this Friday over his new hairstyle.

Leonard, 33, is currently sporting a longer hairdo in Paris. Most fans raved about this new look.

“Kawhi Kravitz,” one fan commented.
“Bro turned into Bob Marley,” another fan said.
“He’s looking like he’s about that business,” a third fan wrote. “Hope he stays healthy for the entire season and going forward.”
“Wow he’s looking good,” a social media user said.
This photo of Leonard already has over 120,000 views in just a few hours.
Suffice to say, there’ll be plenty of fans in Leonard’s corner once the 2025-26 season begins in the fall.
We’re not sure if this is strictly a summer-time look for Leonard, who is under contract with the Clippers through the 2026-27 season.
