The 2020-21 Los Angeles Clippers achieved a historic milestone by making the deepest playoff run in the franchise's 51-year history, reaching the Western Conference Finals for the first time. Under first-year head coach Tyronn Lue, the team finished the regular season with a strong 47-25 record, led by the All-NBA performances of Kawhi Leonard and Paul George. The Clippers showcased remarkable resilience in the postseason, becoming the first team in NBA history to win two playoff series in the same year after trailing 0-2, defeating both the Dallas Mavericks and the top-seeded Utah Jazz before their impressive campaign concluded in a hard-fought six-game series against the Phoenix Suns. A nine-time NBA All-Star and elite two-way forward, Paul George is a premier scorer and defender who led the Indiana Pacers to consecutive Eastern Conference Finals and the Los Angeles Clippers to their first Western Conference Finals in franchise history.
