San Diego State to Retire Kawhi Leonard’s Jersey

SAN DIEGO — Kawhi Leonard will become the first San Diego State player to have his jersey retired when the No. 7 Aztecs honor him Feb. 1 during a game against Utah State.

Leonard helped lead the Aztecs to national prominence during his two seasons, including reaching their first Sweet 16 and finishing a program-best 34-3 in the 2010-11 season.

Leonard is expected to be present as his No. 15 jersey is hoisted into the rafters at Viejas Arena. His Los Angeles Clippers play a home game that afternoon. Steve Fisher, who turned around the program in his 18 seasons as coach, also will participate.
