Watch: Pachulia undercuts Leonard, forces him from game
Streamable
Kawhi Leonard's left ankle was already vulnerable after he rolled it earlier in the third quarter of Game 1 against the Golden State Warriors. He also missed the end of Game 5 and all of Game 6 in the San Antonio Spurs' series with the Houston Rockets due to a bad sprain.
Going up for a jumper later in the frame at Oracle Arena on Sunday afternoon, Leonard came down awkwardly after being undercut - intentionally or not - by Zaza Pachulia.
Leonard took two free throws after Pachulia was whistled for a personal foul. He then headed to the locker room and did not return.
