San Antonio Spurs forward Kawhi Leonard just finished his fifth season in the NBA and he’s already added to a strong resume that should spark interest in his perhaps still-overlooked cards.
He was named the NBA’s Defensive Player of the Year for the second season in a row on Monday and that puts him in some elite territory as only the eighth player in league history to win the award in back-to-back seasons and just the ninth multi-time winner.
He’s a 7-foot-3 NBA rookie who’s on the only team with perhaps the best shot of dethroning the Golden State Warriors’ juggernaut.
