Kawhi Leonard has a postseason career-high 32 points
Leonard dominated on both sides of the court
Kawhi Leonard has a passion for playing defense, but the San Antonio Spurs forward does not want to be regarded a one-dimensional player.
So, a day after earning NBA Defensive Player of the Year honors, Leonard's offensive outburst helped San Antonio break the Los Angeles Clippers' "spirit" in a blowout victory.
Leonard had a postseason career-high 32 points and the Spurs never trailed in dominating the Clippers 100-73 on Friday night to take a 2-1 lead in their first-round series.
"He continues to impress me every time he's out there," San Antonio veteran Tim Duncan said. "He can put on a show like that in a situation like this. It's not only great for us, but it's impressive to watch."
