Kawhi Leonard has continued to impress and show how much his game has expanded this year. Arguably on of the best 2-way players in the NBA, Kawhi means business.

The San Antonio Spurs have yet to lose a game on the road this year, led by Leonard, the Spurs are once again proving they are not to be messed with, even on the road.

Leonard seems to be a shoe in for the defensive player of the year award thus far in the NBA season. However, the MVP race is a whole different beast.
