The Los Angeles Clippers have notched a postseason berth in five of the past six seasons, but their chances are up in the air regarding the 2025 NBA playoff picture.

Clippers Playoff Chances

The Clippers’ playoff odds are off the board now, with Kawhi Leonardโ€™s health status uncertain. The Clippers were +195 to make the playoffs before the Leonard news.

Here is how their postseason odds compare to the Pacific Division:

  • Suns: -225
  • Kings: -145
  • Lakers: -105
  • Warriors: +110
  • Clippers: Off the board

Clippers Playoff Seed

While the season hasnโ€™t started yet, the Clippers are in a tough spot after losing Paul George to the Philadelphia 76ers in free agency.

The Clippers were the No. 4 seed last year.

Last Time the Clippers Made the Playoffs

The Clippers made the postseason in 2024, notching their fifth playoff bid in six seasons.

However, they lost in the opening round for the third time over that span, losing to the Dallas Mavericks in six games.

The Clippers have 18 postseason appearances without a championship in their franchise history.
