Former San Diego State athlete and current San Antonio Spurs forward Kawhi Leonard is one of the best basketball players in the world. When we debuted the Mountain West Connection pro athlete of the year vote last year, Leonard was also the runaway winner.
He’s done nothing but increase his stock since then, but can he take home our small honor for a second straight year?
If you’re unfamiliar with the process, it’s pretty simple: We give you twelve pro athletes, one from each of the Mountain West’s twelve programs, and you decide the best of the best.
