Yesterday, the Los Angeles Clippers star Kawhi Leonard played a game against the Warriors. This is his first back-to-back game after 1372 days. According to my understanding, Leonard has completely changed his professional attitude and promised to play all back-to-back games this season.
Leonard played back-to-back against the Spurs and the Warriors in the past two days. In the second game of defeating the Warriors yesterday, he played 35 minutes, made 7 of 12 shots, scored 21 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists. He performed well.
According to FOX reporter Chris Broussard, Leonard’s mentality has changed. “He has a real attitude adjustment. In the past few years, he has always regarded basketball as a hobby rather than his job. Now, he averages his career per game. The highest 34.2 minutes. He said he will continue to do this and continue to play back-to-back games. This change in attitude is good for the Clippers.”
The last time Leonard played back-to-back was in April 2017, when he was still playing for the Spurs and played consecutive games against the Grizzlies and the Lakers.
In the past few seasons, Leonard has been controversial and has received a lot of load management (rotations). He led the team to win the championship with the Tyrannosaurus the previous season, and a lot of rotations were considered a good decision, but last season, his load management was thought to have affected the speedboat’s running-in and chemistry.
So far in the new season, Leonard is in good condition, averaging 23.0 points, 5.6 rebounds and 6.1 assists per game. He currently has 6 wins and 3 losses, ranking third in the Western Conference.
