Ty Lue says Kawhi Leonard will have opportunities to emulate Jordan and Bryant

LA Clippers coach Ty Lue to employ triangle sets, use Kawhi Leonard like Kobe Bryant, Michael Jordan

The Los Angeles Clippers plan to use Kawhi Leonard in the triangle offense as Phil Jackson did with Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant.

Per ESPN, The new Clippers coach said Sunday that Leonard will have opportunities to emulate Jordan and Bryant — two players Leonard has studied and patterned his midrange game after.
“We have put in two or three sets from the triangle and let Kawhi play in those spaces where Kobe and Jordan played in those spots as well,” said Lue, who played for Phil Jackson, where he learned the triangle. “[Leonard] loves those two players. He really respects and looks up to those guys, so we’re just trying to put him in positions [to succeed]. I was able to play with both those guys, but I also played in the triangle, so just trying to teach him that as well as teaching our team as well.”
