We were lucky to maintain the record we did during his absence (and other injuries too for that matter).

He looks great so far especially his jumper.

Midrange jumpers are typically the least desirable shots in the NBA, so it’s a good thing that Leonard isn’t particularly good at them. His 15-foot jumper seems to be a little broken, but no need to fix it at this point in the season

Leonard has improved his mid-range shot (and the ability to create his own mid-range shot) this season. He was hitting those 10-15 feet before his injury.
Bad season's start 3's FG% but was an effective mid-range shooter.

I actually feel like Kawhi is a pretty solid off the dribble mid range shooter, he usually seems to knock them down tbh

His stroke looks waaay better, that broken hand seems to have been a blessing in disguise. He was stuck in a bad rhythm and that broken hand pretty much reset it, looks like the same thing happened to Green as well.

As his 3pt shot continues to fall it opens up everything else, both for him and the team as he stretches the floor more effectively. He also looks way more aggressive when looking for his shot, sitting on the bench helped him gain some perspective.

Yeah, he's surprisingly good at the mid range which is even more valuable when he's hitting 3's at a respectable clip as they have to come out to him and he can just go around them for the pull up jumper. Him developing that part of his game stretches the whole defense out and opens up shots for every one else.

Loved his aggression last night, been waiting to see that fire in him since we traded for him. His confidence is finally catching up to his ability and it is a beautiful thing.

Can't wait til tomorrow, it's gonna be a barn burner though I think Beasley is the X factor for them now. Kid had a strong line last night and seems to play better without all the pressure.

He's definitely been something else since returning. He's been more relaxed yet assertive, like he's getting in rhythm with the system. As good as he's been, he's still not fully healed, so the time off has been good for him.

Plus he's looking like a badass with that hand bandage....

Tomorrow is going to be great, he really is the difference maker in us having a chance against them. He's our only real athleticism and when he's active and causing havoc, we are just so much tougher
