- An absolute lockdown defender, possibly the greatest we've seen on the wing/perimeter in 6.0 and a dazzling board-man (who occasionally got paid). Kawhi scored early in his career, but found his true niche as the glue of 2 championship teams (back-to-back champ with the Pacers and Knicks) by contributing everywhere except scoring.
- Top 45 in all-time Win Shares (109.5) despite his seemingly "limited" role.
- 1st all-time in steals (by a large margin), 15th all-time in rebounding (3rd among wings), and 9th all-time in minutes played.
