Down a point with the game on the line, the San Antonio Spurs called upon their straight-faced superstar.
Kawhi Leonard went right at Indiana Pacers swingman Paul George, backing the All-Defensive player down before drilling a turnaround fadeaway in his grill.
PG-13 had a chance to win it at the buzzer, but he bricked a 3-pointer.
Leonard finished with 31 points to go along with 10 rebounds, three steals, and two assists in the Spurs' 100-99 victory - their fifth in a row. They're now just 3.5 games back of the Warriors for the league's best record.
