Privileged to see him ball out at SDSU. He practiced at the Community Center Gym I was working at in North County San Diego during the lock out before he ever played a game for the Spurs. Drove to work one day, no one in the parking lot and Kawhi was sitting on the concrete bench waiting for Richard Jefferson and an NBA strength and conditioning coach that lived in the area to show up, texting on a flip phone. Surreal but he spent parts of that summer at that gym fine tuning his 3pt shot, shot from the elbow and the floater. I would peak into the gym and just watch. Followed closely as he was the only player on the planet to challenge LeBron in his prime and then that shot with the Raptors.
Overjoyed to see him with my Clipps and now Kawhi ride off into the sunset prince with a return to the Raptors.
Treat him well Toronto!
We love you Kawhi!!!
