Kawhi Leonard gets random drug test right after making his MVP case vs Rockets

Kawhi Leonard stated his case for MVP on Monday night with some last-minute heroics in a thrilling win over James Harden and the Houston Rockets.

But before he could come out to discuss it in the postgame press conference, the San Antonio Spurs star had some pressing business to take care of. Namely, he had to take a random drug test, one of four NBA players receive during each season.

Granted, this seems like standard business in the NBA, but the timing sure seems convenient.

Former NFL punter Pat McAfee knows the feeling. So does James Harrison.

Still, we're just glad to see Leonard getting some MVP hype, a cause our own Skip Bayless can surely get behind.
