After bringing the first NBA title to the Toronto Raptors, Kawhi Leonard was picked the best player in the NBA.

ESPN asked 20 coaches, executives and scouts from across the NBA who is the best player in the league to which team will win next season’s championship.

Leonard received 12 votes overcoming the last two MVPs Giannis Antetokounmpo (6), James Harden (2).

When asked why Kawhi, one Eastern Conference executive said with a laugh: “Did you watch what just happened?”
