He used a clone as a distraction against Kakuzu, so couldn't he do that again
without using sage mode?

naruto
When Tsunade told Naruto to not use the Rasenshuriken, couldn't he have just used a clone?


is simple, (it's my opinion. i am not kishimoto) because the kage-bunshin
cannot strong hold the Rasenshuriken, so the kage-bunshin will dissapear.

it also show, on this anime, if naruto use the rasengan he will use the real
body not kage-bunshin.

answer


The Rasenshuriken was originally told to be off-limits due to the physical
damage inflicted by its use. Because Naruto used it like a traditional
Rasengan, which requires that the jutsu make direct contact with the enemy,
the damage done to his person couldn't be avoided.

The reason that a clone could not work in this scenario would be due to the
fact that clones are dispelled once sufficiently high physical damage is
inflicted to it. It would be my belief that a clone could never sustain its
form long enough to sustain a hit with the Rasenshuriken before it - and the
jutsu - were dispelled.
