Kawhi Leonard says that the engraving reminds him to put the ring on his middle finger. Some fans had initially assumed that it was a jab at Leonard for not choosing the Toronto Raptors and joining the Los Angeles Clippers. In an interview with a sports channel, Kawhi Leonard spoke about his hands being too large, which sometimes makes it difficult to shoot. The Clippers beat the Raptors 112-92. Kawhi Leonard finished the game with 23 points. Kawhi Leonard is currently averaging 24.9 points, 7.7 rebounds and 5.3 assists per game.
