Let's try to answer grids 7 and 8 for Monday's NBA Crossover Grid: which players who suited up for the LA Clippers and Toronto Raptors have lost in the NBA Finals? A player qualifies if he lost an NBA Finals series and not just an NBA Finals game.

Kawhi Leonard is a popular answer for both grids, as he has played for both the Clippers and Raptors. Leonard is currently playing for the Clippers and won an NBA championship with the Raptors in 2019. He has a 2-1 record in the NBA Finals, winning his first one in 2014 with the San Antonio Spurs.

Leonard's lone NBA Finals series loss happened in 2013 when the Miami Heat beat the Spurs in seven games. It was the NBA Finals where Ray Allen forced overtime in Game 6 and LeBron James took over late in Game 7.
