Over the summer Kawhi Leonard chose to play for the Clippers instead of the Lakers but it seems he might regret that decision considering that fans in his own hometown of Los Angeles are turning on him
During the pre-game introductions, Kawhi was loudly booed at the Staples Center even though this was considered a “Clippers” home game.

Things got a bit awkward when Kawhi had to address the crowd and once again you could hear Lakers fans booing in the background.

It’s going to be real weird if the Clippers are forced to play the Lakers in the playoffs.
