Two major plans for the Clippers offseason are exposed, Harden renews his contract first, and Xiaoka appears in Paris

The 2025 draft has ended, and the Clippers' gains are very average. They selected center Nedhausen with the No. 30 draw, and then continued to trade upward to get the No. 50 draw, selecting point guard Kobe Sanders.

Kobe Sanders is about 2.01 meters tall (some physical test data are marked as bare feet 200.7cm and shoes 204cm), and weighs about 92 kilograms. In terms of characteristics, there are rich offensive methods, good basket efficiency, medium and long-distance shooting threats, and outstanding passing and support abilities in the same position. The ball maker and game reading ability are good, and the play style has retro charm (using emergency stop jump shots after playing back and forth after finishing with an emergency stop jump shot); the defensive performance is average, and the athletic ability is not outstanding. The age of 23 (old rookie) also restricts potential to a certain extent. The confrontation is insufficient, and the defense needs to be improved.

is considered to add a front line, but it should not be of much use in the new season. After the draft, Clippers President Frank also expressed the team's offseason plan, first of all, Harden's contract renewal.

Frank said: "We have officially contacted Harden, and he is our primary goal in the offseason. We hope he can stay here, and stay for a long time. What is the best situation? He stays with the team and helps the team win the championship. "

"Of course, we have to respect his player options for next season, which is his right. If he chooses to execute, we will be very, very excited. Or he can jump out of the contract and we negotiate together to finally reach an agreement that is good for both parties. "

Harden has one year left in the contract, and is a player option of more than 35 million. There is no need to think that Harden will definitely break out of the contract and then negotiate a new contract with the Clippers. At present, he can still sign a three-year contract that is beneficial to Harden. Because he is still 8 months away from being 36 years old, according to the "38-year-old regulations" in the labor and capital agreement, 3 years is the maximum period.

The Clippers' idea is also on the surface. They want to level Harden's contract with Xiaoka, so they only want to sign a two-year contract with Harden. At that time, the two of them had a very flexible operation space and were very selective. They either rebuild or have a lot of salary space to sign new stars.

So it was reported that the Clippers gave Harden a two-year contract of 75 million, but it was never reached, and it was probably not meeting Harden's psychological expectations. This year, I finally made it to the All-Star and the Best Team, but the Clippers are still unwilling to pay too high salaries. Moreover, the two-year contract is also embarrassing for Harden. At that time, he is 38 years old, and he may have to go to a basic salary year by year.

The Clippers should not have much demand in the free market this offseason. If they don't get a good fourth position, they should add a point guard to lead the second lineup, or play the starting lineup when Harden is resting. As for Powell's contract, there should be no hurry. The Clippers definitely don't want to give him a maximum salary. After all, the performance in the playoffs did not meet expectations. Even if there is a good No. 4 position, Powell will definitely become a bargaining chip.

Therefore, the Clippers should not have any signings in the free market. They should still focus on the trading market and seek a better No. 4 player. This can also allow Xiaoka to concentrate on playing No. 3 position to reduce the risk of injury.

Frank also talked about Kat, and said: "He was very excited this offseason and had been training during the finals. Because this is the first time in five years that he doesn't have to spend the offseason in the offseason. In the past, he was trapped in injuries and could not train. This year he can formulate some training plans, which is something to be happy for him and for us. "
