After blowing past his defender, Los Angeles Clippers star Kawhi Leonard just spiked one over Phoenix Suns big man Deandre Ayton. In true Leonard fashion, he didn't express any form of emotion.
See the clip below to witness Leonard's monster slam over Ayton. Notice that the Clippers bench stood up and celebrated like madmen after that Leonard poster. Leonard, meanwhile, ran back on defense as if nothing happened.

Leonard fans — on the Clippers, the Raptors, or the Spurs — know that's the way The Klaw is. He barely expresses any form of emotion even after posterizing someone. You can even count the times when he celebrated after a basketball play. In recent memory, fans saw some emotion from Leonard when he won the title with the Toronto Raptors in 2019.
Before that, Leonard released all his emotions after he hit that epic game-winning shot over the Philadelphia 76ers in Game 7 of the Eastern Conference semifinals with the Raptors, before he came to the Clippers. It was the first time that fans saw Leonard brimming with excitement.
But other than those two instances, we've rarely seen Leonard jump for joy, taunt an opponent, or even aggressively complain at the referees during games. It's no wonder that Leonard landed that Terminator: Dark Fate commercial a few years ago, preceding his first postseason with the Clippers. The man acts like a real robot: devoid of any emotions and programmed to play basketball and win at all costs.
