Leonard also made NBA history during the game.
Justin Russo wrote: “Kawhi Leonard has his 50th consecutive 20-point game — the 14th different player in NBA history to do that. Leonard extends his franchise single-season record, is 7 shy of tying Bob McAdoo’s overall franchise record (57), and has the longest streak ever by a player 30 or older.”
