Kawhi Leonard Records Solid Defensive Stats In Only 17 Minutes
12/16:San Antonio Spurs small forward Kawhi Leonard played only 17 minutes on Friday night but posted a solid line, scoring 12 points on 5-for-9 shooting while chipping in four rebounds, two steals and two blocks in a loss to the Houston Rockets. Leonard is still on a minutes restriction but had some nice plays in this game, including a huge block on James Harden. Owners should be patient, as the Spurs will not rush Leonard into high playing time due to the strength of their team. It will take a few games for him to truly shake off the rust and begin returning early-round value.
