Kawhi Leonard poured in a career-best 55 points on Monday, December 29, 2025, but the Los Angeles Clippers star left the locker room more irritated than elated.
According to the team, several Clippers players splashed Leonard with water as they celebrated the record night. The unexpected soaking did not sit well with the usually reserved forward, who showed visible displeasure before leaving the area.
The brief incident took place moments after Leonard’s standout performance, which set a personal scoring high and highlighted the Clippers’ latest victory. While teammates framed the shower as a spontaneous show of appreciation, Leonard’s reaction suggested he preferred a quieter acknowledgment of his milestone.
No additional comments were made public by Leonard or the organization following the game.
