Kawhi Leonard took over for the Toronto Raptors late in Game 5 of the NBA Finals against the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday (Manila time).

Down two with a little over five minutes left, the Raptors drew 10 straight points from Leonard to take a 103-97 cushion with 3:27 remaining.

Leonard’s scintillating stretch, however, was still not enough to lift the Raptors in what could’ve been the title clincher as the Warriors rallied behind 3-pointers from Steph Curry and Klay Thompson for the 106-105 win.

Leonard led Toronto with 26 points, 12 rebounds, six assists, two steals and two blocks.
