Clippers vs Suns preview: Leonard is absent, Harden single-core leads the team PK Adu + Booker + Beal

At 10:00 on October 24, Beijing time, the Los Angeles Clippers hosted the Phoenix Suns in the NBA regular season, which was the opening game of the new season between the two teams. Both teams made it to the playoffs last season, but unfortunately they were affected by injuries and did not show their due strength, and they were eliminated early in the first round.

Harden leads the team with a single core

The Clippers' lineup this season has changed, George joined the 76ers, Wei Shao joined the Nuggets, and only Harden and Leonard are left in the core, but Leonard's injury has become a hidden danger, and he will not be able to play at the beginning of the new season, and when he can return, he can only wait patiently, that is to say, Harden can only lead the team alone. Harden's age is increasing, and it is no longer possible to let go of the picks as he did during the Rockets period, and coach Lu also said that the most important thing this season is to avoid Harden's excessive fatigue.

Leonard is out with injury

Harden needs more help, Powell, Zubac, Batum, Jones, Mann, Hyland, and Coffey are the main rotations, and some of the Clippers' players are very young, and they have to work hard to grow, starting from defense, and strive to become a wonder player. With the Lakers, another team in Los Angeles, off to a good start at home, can the Clippers get off to a winning start with a new home court?

Adu leads the Suns

The Suns' starting lineup is very good, especially with the big three Durant, Booker, and Beal, fans don't have to worry too much about their offensive ability. Adu averaged 27.1 points, 6.6 rebounds and 5 assists in 37.2 minutes per game last season, Booker averaged 27.1 points, 4.5 rebounds and 6.9 assists in 36 minutes per game last season, and Beal averaged 18.2 points and 4.4 rebounds in 33.3 minutes per game.

The Sun's Big Three

In addition to the Big Three to stay healthy, the Suns also need to improve the strength of the second team, and Okogie has been officially announced to be absent for tomorrow's opener, and Allen and Damion Lee are doubtful. It remains to be seen if the Suns can start the season with a win on the road.
