Kawhi Leonard, NBA and the Clippers
Digest more
The resurgent Los Angeles Clippers take a shot at a fifth consecutive lopsided win when they host the Sacramento Kings on Tuesday night.
Brook Lopez is getting credit for helping them rediscover their defensive identity during a four-game winning streak, while a healthy Kawhi Leonard has been a force to be reckoned with.
Kawhi dropped a career-high 55 points last night on the Pistons. That’s one of the best teams and defenses in the league. In the third quarter, he hit them for 26 of his 55 points, and he just peppered them all night with midrange jumpers and footwork. It led to this text exchange:
James Harden had 34 points, Brook Lopez scored 31 points, including a career-high nine 3-pointers, and the Los Angeles Clippers beat the Portland Trail Blazers 119-103 for their third straight win.
Kawhi Leonard accomplished multiple milestones in NBA history after exploding with 55 points in the Clippers' win over the Pistons on Sunday.
