Weaknesses: Lack of playmakers

Kawhi Leonard is not known for his playmaking
Kawhi Leonard is not known for his playmaking

The Clippers have some great scorers and some great defenders. But they don't have an elite point guard who can run plays for the team.

Kawhi Leonard won the 2019 NBA Finals MVP. He has improved his offensive game brilliantly but is still not good at playmaking. He is an inefficient distributor of the ball. Paul George is a great two-way player but he has not shown much ability to get his teammates involved because of his passing.

Lou Williams is a primary scorer. Beverley plays off the ball most of the times and isn't famous for his offensive game. The Clippers may struggle in tight situations since they don't have a great distributor of the ball. They have great firepower on offense. Leonard, George, Williams can all score buckets at will. But they might find it difficult to get their other teammates involved.
