Kawhi Leonard Is Playing Like a Two-Way Star Again
Leonard is producing elite all-around numbers in the 2025-26 season, averaging 27.9 points, 6.4 rebounds and 3.6 assists while shooting 50.5% from the field, and he recently posted 28 points, 8 rebounds, 4 assists and 3 steals in a win over Indiana[1]. His biggest differentiators are his midrange efficiency, defensive playmaking, and calm, game-controlling presence on the wing[1][2]. The fit question is usually about health more than skill: when Leonard is available, he is still a franchise-level engine who can raise a team’s ceiling on both ends[1][2].
