The Raptors tied the Eastern Conference Finals on Tuesday night with a 120-102 win over the Bucks. They did so with Kawhi Leonard battling through an unspecified leg injury.
Leonard suffered the injury during the Raptors Game 3 win on Sunday. The injury slowed Kawhi on Tuesday night and he was seen limping multiple times after making plays. His teammates picked up the slack and pulled off the big win.
Not everyone is convinced that Kawhi is injured. The head of the doubters is Spurs fan and sports troll Skip Bayless. The Undisputed host took to Twitter during Game 4 to criticize Leonard and question his injury.
If you're a longtime Spurs fan, you know you can never quite trust and depend on No. 2. Is he hurt tonight? He seems to be moving just fine. Is he out of gas? IT'S THE CONFERENCE FINALS!!! The truth is, No. 2 often is what he is not.

The Raptors did not put No. 2 on the official injury report. Yet now he has shrewdly built in the mysterious injury excuse – is it his quad? his knee? – just in case he crumbles under the pressure to lead his team vs Giannis'.

This is San Antonio all over again. Obviously, the Raptors' med staff is so unsure what's wrong with him, they didn't even put him on the injury report. BUT … he power-cuts, dunks and limps. Huh? Why? What exactly is wrong? Ginobili and Parker: Been there, done that.

Iff Nick Nurse believed No. 2 is really hurt, no way he would've put him back in a blowout with 7 minutes left.

Good old doctor Skip sharing all of his years of medical expertise with us. He knows everything, it’s the reason he has so many followers on Twitter and follows nobody.
