LOS ANGELES -- Russell Westbrook started the night off with a bang against his former team, but it was Kawhi Leonard who secured yet another Clippers win over the Los Angeles Lakers by doing something he hasn't done in a decade.
In the biggest game of the season for the Clippers, Leonard played the entire second half for only the third time in his career, finishing with 25 points and seven rebounds in a 125-118 victory over the Lakers before a sold-out crowd at Crypto.com Arena.
The last time Leonard played an entire half was the second half of Game 7 of the 2013 NBA Finals between the San Antonio Spurs and the Miami Heat.
