LA Clippers’ superstar Kawhi Leonard is the first player to receive the newly named NBA All-Star Kobe Bryant Most Valuable Player.
He was voted by fans as the MVP of the 2020 All-Star game following his game-high 30 point performance. He connected on eight three-pointers, pulled down seven rebounds, dished out four assists and had two steals in route to helping Team LeBron win 157-155.
If you missed the game, I highly suggest watching it (at a minimum, the fourth quarter). The new format made the players more competitive at the end of each quarter and with the goal score of 157 points set in the fourth, the defense came out to play.
