If I can get back and win a championship, that's what I'm trying to do.

If I can get back and win a championship, that's what I'm trying to do.

Kawhi Leonard

I could have gone to a bigger school. I use it as motivation going to a school that loved me. I wanted to put them on the map and show everyone that you don't need to go to a top school to make it in the NBA.

Kawhi Leonard

Obviously, I like guys that can defend other positions. Draymond Green is doing a great job with Golden State. Jimmy Butler brings it every night when I'm out there.

Kawhi Leonard

It was a great feeling to be named an All-Star starter, to know that my hard work is paying off and fans around the world are recognizing that.

Kawhi Leonard

It's how I've been playing my whole life, guarding the best player on the other team.

Kawhi Leonard

I'm just going out there to do my role, the same role - defense first - and then see how the ball turns out on the offensive end.

Kawhi Leonard

I'm always trying to come down with a win. That's what matters to me and my squad.

Kawhi Leonard

I'm just here to play basketball and have fun and try to win another championship.

Kawhi Leonard

My motivation wasn't really to get a $95 million contract, you know?

Kawhi Leonard

I'm just happy that I get the opportunity to do the things on the court that I do in practice.

Kawhi Leonard

I know people are going to put the main focus on stopping me, so I need to learn how to make my teammates better by passing and creating opportunities for them.

Kawhi Leonard

People in the NBA are just as athletic as you. That's the game. You have to have the change of pace. You have to change speeds to get around people.

Kawhi Leonard

Oh man, I like Chevys.

Kawhi Leonard

It's all mental. I just have to worry about my game.

Kawhi Leonard

I always wanted to play both ends of the floor. I never wanted to be one-dimensional.

Kawhi Leonard

I can't be impatient. It would show on the floor, and I won't compete if I'm thinking about getting the ball.

Kawhi Leonard

I love the game of basketball, and as long as I can do that, keep playing and try to get some more championships with the organization, I'll be happy.

Kawhi Leonard

I'm never trying to break a career high out there.

Kawhi Leonard

I'm just trying to pass Tim Duncan in championships if I can one day. That's my motivation; that's what I strive for. Tim is one of the greatest players who has ever played, so if I could get close or reach that plateau and have my name on that list.

Kawhi Leonard

I'm not one of the guys in the league for the fame. I'm here so I can take of my family, my mom, my friends and take care of myself.

Kawhi Leonard

When I'm on the court, I feel all problems go away.

Kawhi Leonard

That's how I grew up. Just play defense - and make a basket.

Kawhi Leonard

I like the old-school muscle cars.

Kawhi Leonard

When I was growing up, I didn't have a hometown hero.

Kawhi Leonard

I try to come in with a focus to stop my man and win the game. I'm always trying to be ready to catch them off their strides by being physical enough without getting fouls.

Kawhi Leonard

I rarely eat breakfast because of our schedule, actually. If I do, though, I'll try to do an egg-white omelet with some bell peppers and mushrooms. Maybe a side of a bunch of different fruits.

Kawhi Leonard

I just want to keep improving, to keep getting better.

Kawhi Leonard

I definitely don't like to eat a lot before I play. I don't like to play on a full stomach. Sometimes, if I'm feeling hungry before a game, I'll eat one of those protein bars, but that's it.

Kawhi Leonard

If I get noticed for my individual performance, that's what happens. Other than that, I'm just trying to win the game.

Kawhi Leonard

I want the kids to know that it's not a myth that somebody from their city plays and wins in the NBA. I just want to influence them to work hard and do whatever they want to do in life, whether it's to be a basketball player or scientist... if they believe in themselves, they can do anything.

Kawhi Leonard

I'm just a low-key guy.

Kawhi Leonard

I don't care about winning an MVP - the MVP doesn't mean you're the best player in the league.

Kawhi Leonard

My mindset is the same every game.

Kawhi Leonard

The Spurs are a great organization.

Kawhi Leonard

I just have to move forward and keep working on my game and getting better.

Kawhi Leonard

At the end of the day, we all know what the Jordan logo means, and you can't take anything away from that. But it's pretty cool to have my own logo on a Jordan shoe.
