Kawhi Leonard, San Antonio Spurs
Stats: 20.8 PPG 2.7 APG 7.7 RPG – 119 ORtg 90 DRtg .303 WS/48 26.9 PER
Kawhi Leonard is one of those players whose numbers might not jump off the table when compared to others like Curry and Durant, but you can’t overlook what he does on both sides of the ball. Leonard is the best defender in the NBA and this season he’s become the focal point of the Spurs offense.
We have seen him go head-to-head with Durant and have the better game. He is putting up career highs in points, blocks, assists, rebounds, free throw shooting percentage and three-point shooting percentage. If he continues to shoot almost 50 percent from the field and from three-point range, then he could end up passing Durant as Curry’s biggest threat.
