James Harden names his big-time player: “his shot-making is elite”
An important win for the Clippers to tie the series 1-1 with the Nuggets had one name on everyone’s lips.


Los Angeles Clippers’ Kawhi Leonard had some night against the Denver Nuggets on Monday night. As our very own Dane Arlauckas said in his final comments of the live coverage:
"With the game on the line, you knew who LA was going to. Kawhi had the hot hand all night and dropped the mic with an elbow jumper to stretch the lead to three and then locked down Jokic on the other end as he tried to tie the game up with a buzzer beating three."
KAWHI LEONARD WAS EVERYWHERE IN THE FINAL MINUTE!!

And Dane wasn’t the only one suitably impressed by Leonard. Clippers teammate James Harden emphasized where his shooting lies.
“It felt like he didn’t miss a shot,” said Harden to the gathered reporters. “His shot-making ability is elite.”
