Kawhi Leonard is one of the best players in the league when he’s healthy, and there’s no doubt that he is a proven superstar that can win a championship as the No. 1 option. 

This season, Kawhi Leonard’s averages of 15.3 PPG, 6.1 RPG, and 3.3 APG aren’t necessarily impressive. However, part of that is due to the superstar working his way back from injury, and a recent performance suggests that he could be back to being a top-tier two-way player in the league. 

In the Los Angeles Clippers’ recent win against the Washington Wizards, Kawhi Leonard put up 31 points, 9 rebounds, 3 steals, and 1 block. A lot of NBA fans reacted to the win, with many saying that the superstar is officially back.

raptors legend, we love to see this

KING OF LA IS BACK

He is officially back.

Definition of 2-way

Healthy Clippers is Top 3 in this League with Warriors and Nets

He turned it around second half, bro was scaring me

Best player in LA

the greatest defender of our generation is officially BACK

Be scared everyone!!

BEST PLAYER IN THE LEAUGE

He’s one of the best in the league when he’s healthy It’s a shame he has had so many injuries

And he is still not 100% himself.Evey team fears him in the playoffs when fully healthy.

It’s a shame the entire Clippers are injured. This team is worth something.

hmm playoffs go too sweet!

There is no doubt that this was a good performance from Kawhi Leonard. Hopefully, the superstar is able to continue playing at a high level, and with him at his best, the Clippers can beat anyone in a playoff series.


Kawhi Leonard Is Focused On The Playoffs Not The Regular Season

Kawhi Leonard is a player that elevates his game in the playoffs, and historically, that is where he is at his best. In fact, previously, Kawhi Leonard admitted that he doesn’t care about the regular season and is worried about the playoffs.

Kawhi Leonard: “I’m not worried about tonight… I don’t want to be here tonight. I’m focusing on the end of the year. Playoff basketball. Doesn’t matter about tonight.”

The Los Angeles Clippers were viewed by many to be a championship contender going into the season. They are currently the 6th seed in the Western Conference and have won 4 of their last 5 games. This is definitely encouraging, and they are definitely a dangerous team come playoff time.

The key for the Los Angeles Clippers is obviously Kawhi Leonard remaining healthy. Their hopes of contention lie on his shoulders, and we’ll see if they are able to win it all this year.
