Spot-on impression of Kawhi Leonard

Remember Brandon Armstrong? He’s the former NBA player who became semi-famous last year for his humorous YouTube videos impersonating NBA stars. He finally did Kawhi Leonard, and it’s arguably his best yet. He gets the high release point and emotionless facial expressions just right:

Tony Parker will never satisfy everybody

There have been several topics up for debate over the years, but few have brought as much disagreement among Spurs fans (and critics) as what Tony Parker’s true value is, even when he was an All-Star leading the Spurs to the Finals.

Who wouldn’t want their future learning from the best in franchise history?
