Kawhi Leonard is somehow lagging behind Zaza Pachulia in the All-Star fan vote, so he got down to some good old-fashioned stat-padding Thursday night, and took a page out of Nick Young's book along the way.
Leonard, who's perhaps the league's most fearsome thief, ripped one from his own teammate, Pau Gasol, on his way to a layup against the Denver Nuggets.
Gasol was so surprised by getting stripped he even flailed his arms in an effort to draw a whistle. Fortunately, the refs deemed it a play-on.
