Kawhi Leonard put a vintage performance together on Monday night as the Los Angeles Clippers evened up their series with the Denver Nuggets, scoring 39 points on 15-of-19 shooting and once again looking like one of the more ruthlessly efficient players to put on a uniform.

The Los Angeles Clippers beat the Denver Nuggets on Monday to even up the first-round series at 1-1. Clippers star forward Kawhi Leonard went off for 39 points in 39 minutes while shooting 15-of-19 from the field, 4-of-7 from beyond the arc and 5-of-5 from the free-throw line.

James Harden believes Kawhi Leonard doesn't get enough appreciation after he led the Los Angeles Clippers to a 105-102 win over the Denver Nuggets in Game 2 at Ball Arena on Monday night.
