It has not been a good start to March for the Los Angeles Clippers as they continue to slide down the standings. Currently in the eighth spot in the Western Conference, the Clippers are on a five-game losing streak. The Golden State Warriors absolutely dismantled the Clippers in their last matchup on March 2, winning the game 115-91. However, fans noticed 23-year-old Warriors star getting the better of 2x champion Kawhi Leonard during an inbounds play.

In contrast to the Clippers, the Warriors have been on a tear recently. In the absence of franchise star Stephen Curry, the Warriors have won 5 games on the bounce. Klay Thompson and Jordan Poole deserve most of the credit for carrying the team to the 5th seed in the West. Furthermore, it seems the team is having fun again after a difficult start to the season.

Jordan Poole and the Warriors having fun on the court

Golden State outscored the Clippers 70-35 in the second half of the game. Jordan Poole went off for 22 points just in the third quarter to rally the Warriors back into the game. However, one moment during the game caught fans’ attention.

During an inbound play, as Leonard was guarding Poole, the 23-year-old decided to test The Klaw‘s reflexes on defense. He faked out Leonard to see his reaction and then laughed it off. The clip went viral on social media as fans found it hilarious.

Kawhi Leonard couldn’t get the Clippers out of the rut

Kawhi Leonard is a two-time Defensive Player of the Year and is widely known for his defense. There is a reason why Leonard?s nickname is ?The Klaw.? His attention to detail on the defensive end is what makes him special.
