San Diego State retires Kawhi’s Jersey

Leonard was the 15th overall pick of the 2011 NBA Draft

San Diego State retired the jersey No.15 of Kawhi Leonard.
The Los Angeles Clippers star played 2 years for the Aztecs.

Leonard is one of just three Aztecs to average a double-double (14.1 points and 10.2 rebounds) for his career.

“It’s a dream come true,” Leonard said, “Just coming here, I wanted to make a name for myself. I wanted to put San Diego State on the map.

“I want to thank the coaching staff, Coach Fisher for recruiting me — recruiting me hard — just wanting me to come to the school”

“Just a great honor, just another step in my career and, you know, just shows that hard work paid off,” Leonard added. “I was able to reach that goal while I was there to be able to become a pro.”
