Monitoring the Minutes
Kevin Durant: 41 minutes played
Kawhi Leonard: 39 minutes played
Kawhi Leonard has been handed the near impossible task of shadowing the league’s MVP. And while Durant racked up 28 points on Monday, Leonard was at least able to score 16 of his own points. Slowing down an MVP isn’t easy, but that’s Leonard’s job this series. If he can also manage to contribute offensively like he did in game one, it could spell trouble for the Thunder.
