Gold finger! Kawhi Leonard blocks Jamal Murray’s dunk attempt with single digit

Kawhi Leonard sent a strong message to the Nuggets late in Game 3 of Los Angeles' second-round playoff series against Denver on Monday night.

The Nuggets may have led throughout most of the game, but Leonard showed his opponents exactly the type of player he is, and what he’s made of, without any body language.

He did that when the Clippers were clinging to a six-point lead with just under two minutes left. Jamal Murray drove to the basket with authority, determined to slam the ball home.

Unfortunately for him, Leonard was tasked with defending the rim, and the two-time Finals MVP denied Murray with only his middle finger, literally. That’s all it took for Leonard to keep the ball from going in.
