Kawhi Leonard

After missing 15 games with a broken hand (during which the Spurs went an underwhelming 7-8), Kawhi Leonard is back in the Spurs starting lineup. Those are huge hands—no wonder it took so long to heal.

Directions in Arc from Patty Mills
After shaking forward Gerald Henderson at the three line, Patty Mills puts a satellite up over center Bismack Biyombo for some third quarter offense.

Manu Ginobili with a Half Time Buzzer Beater
With the clock winding down to close out the second quarter against Charlotte, Manu Ginobili caught-and-released to drain his way into the break (with some pretty incredible arc on this shot, too).

A+ Angles from the Spurs Offense
High school ballers pay attention. Danny Green can't get the ball to Kawhi Leonard so he moves it to Duncan at the top of the key, setting up Kawhi for an effortless backdoor cut.
