Kawhi Leonard showed semblance of the āfun guyā he claimed to be during his introduction as a member of the Toronto Raptors, dancing to a little slo-mo salsa while Kevin Durant and former teammate Russell Westbrook exchanged pleasantries postgame:

Besides his painfully awkward laugh during that same early-season press conference, this is one of the few moments in which Kawhi Leonard has shown his fun-loving nature in front of the cameras.
Naturally, the clip went viral as soon as the All-Star Game ended, and now we're wondering if we'll see more of this fun-loving guy through the last third of the regular season.
So far, Leonard has been all business, posting a career-high 27.0 points and 7.7 rebounds per game in his first season with the Raptors, leading them to the second-best record in the league after being traded from the San Antonio Spurs in the summer.
Also important ā peep Durant giving Kyrie Irving a nipple-twister as the All-Stars congregated, something that drew a rare Kawhi Leonard smile while Damian Lillard offered some postgame comments.
Hopefully this isn't the last time that we get a gem of character from The Klaw this season, but let's not hold our breath. Perhaps we'll see more of this if the Raptors get to the NBA Finals or win it all.
