SF 2 - Kawhi Leonard (Toronto Raptors):

Ad

The Raptors are facing off against the Denver Nuggets in a mouth-watering clash tomorrow. Both teams have been great on defence, the Nuggets are 3rd in Net Defensive rating and will make it a tough challenge for the Toronto Raptors.

If there is any player that can overcome a tough defensive assignment, it is Kawhi Leonard. Since his season-ending injury last season and a subsequent trade to the Raptors for their star guard DeMar DeRozan, Kawhi has been back to his All-Star level.

In 18 games this season, Kawhi has averaged 25.5 points per game to go with 8.6 rebounds and 3 assists. He is also an elite defender and is averaging 1.7 steals per game. He had a huge night against the Cavaliers last time out, where he scored a mammoth 34 points and grabbed 9 boards. He also had a huge night against the Warriors before that with 37 points and is in great form. He should be one of the locks on your team today.
