Kawhi Leonard's Hilarious Reaction to Watching Warriors vs Lakers

Kawhi Leonard does not watch basketball.

Kawhi Leonard is a very eccentric guy in the NBA, he's just a different type of guy with different types of answers. The Clippers are facing the Lakers on Thursday, so when Kawhi was asked if he watched the Lakers face the Warriors on opening night, he had a different type of answer.

"I didn't watch it," Kawhi Leonard said when asked about the Lakers opening night game. 

"I don’t watch basketball like that anyway so. Whoever we play, I’ll see the film, but I pretty much will not watch the games on TV."

. @LawMurrayTheNU: "What did you see from the Lakers game last night?"

Kawhi Leonard: "I didn’t watch it."

"From being in San Diego?"

A typical NBA player would admit that they watch their opposition play the night before a game, but not Kawhi Leonard - he watches the tape and only the tape. Kawhi doesn't watch any basketball of any kind once he gets home, which is a far cry from other NBA players. In the past, I've spoken to Chris Paul when he was on the Clippers, and he would watch footage of all the day's games on his ride home from STAPLES Center, that's how much basketball he would watch.

The one thing with Kawhi Leonard is to always expect the unexpected. Sometimes, you could be asking a very simple question and get the most unexpected response from him. For Kawhi, the only basketball he watches is the work. Regardless, Thursday night should be exciting since it's Kawhi Leonard's return from injury.
