There’s only one person more beloved in Toronto these days than Kawhi Leonard, and his name is Plant Guy. He’s a big, muscular guy who’s usually spotted wearing a Kyle Lowry jersey and rose to fame with a live TV interview during the post-championship celebration in the streets in which he carried a palm tree that he said was a housewarming gift for Kawhi.
Plant Guy became such an instant celebrity that there were knockoff Plant Guys at Monday’s parade in downtown Toronto.
The real Plant Guy was there, too, and he was still trying to give Kawhi his housewarming gift.
