NBA Playoffs 2019: 10 Best individual performances so far

#3 Kawhi Leonard (Toronto Raptors) | Game 1, Eastern Conference Semi-Finals vs Philadelphia 76ers

Stat line: 45 points (16-23 FGM), 11 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals, 1 block, box plus/minus +26

Some might argue that game 7 against the 76ers in which Kawhi scored 41 points and topped it with a series-clinching game-winner was the best individual performance by Leonard. However, The Klaw in game 1 had one of the most efficient and dominant performances in recent memory as he made his way to 45 points on an otherworldly 16-23 shooting from the floor at a 70 percent clip.

The former two-time Defensive Player of the Year led his team to a resounding 108-95 victory over the 76ers with an absurd box plus/minus of +26. He was equally up to the challenge on the defensive end as he along with his team restricted Philly to just 39 percent shooting from the field and their star player Joel Embiid to 5-18 from the field (27.8 percent).
