Kawhi Leonard played his second season with the Clippers. He made his fifth All-Star appearance and was named to his third All-NBA First Team, but missed the Western Conference finals with a partially torn ACL. (Pictured in 2019 with the Toronto Raptors)
Paul George played his second season with the Clippers. He was named to his seventh All-Star team as a reserve. (Pictured in 2014 with the Indiana Pacers)

The 2020–21 Los Angeles Clippers season was the 51st season of the franchise in the National Basketball Association (NBA), their 43rd season in Southern California, and their 37th season in Los Angeles.

On September 28, 2020, the Clippers and head coach Doc Rivers mutually agreed to part ways after seven seasons with the team. On October 20, 2020, the Clippers promoted Tyronn Lue as their new head coach.

The Clippers made the deepest playoff run in their 51-year history. They advanced to the conference finals for the first time in franchise history after defeating the Utah Jazz in six games in the conference semifinals. Their run would come to an end against the Phoenix Suns (who were led by former Clippers star Chris Paul) in the conference finals, losing in six games.

The Clippers were the first and only team to come back from down 2–0 more than once in the same season, denying the Dallas Mavericks and the Utah Jazz a chance at a 3–0 series lead, a deficit which no team in NBA history has ever come back from in a playoff series.
