Projecting the Top 10 Small Forwards for the 2015-16 NBA Season

3. Kawhi Leonard

When you think of pure grit and all-around toughness, Kawhi Leonard should immediately come to mind with his irreplaceable defense and rapid development as a consistent scoring threat for the San Antonio Spurs.

Last year, the 2014 NBA Finals MVP and 2015 NBA Defensive Player of the Year led the league with 2.31 steals per game. Also, Leonard set career highs in scoring (16.1), rebounding (7.2), assists (2.5) and minutes (31.8).

However, many people should expect these numbers to increase yet again this upcoming season as Leonard gradually develops into a superstar in the NBA.

Next: Kevin Durant
