Toronto Raptors forward Kawhi Leonard is considered one of the best defenders in the Association today.
He’s previously earned NBA Defensive Player of the Year honors and has helped his Raptors to a ton of success in his first season up north.
But in a sign that Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo is too much for anyone to handle, the Greek Freak absolutely embarrassed Leonard Thursday night.
Here, we see Giannis turn baseline against Leonard, beating the Raptors star on the spin, before flushing it down with a dunk.

It might not seem like a lot, but this shows us just how dynamic the still young 24-year-old Antetokounmpo is offensively. If you can make Leonard look that bad, you’re certainly doing something right.
For Giannis, this is a bit of revenge after he was posterized in each of his previous two games.
