When it comes to a massive hand spans, Kawhi Leonard dominates the NBA. Of course, there are other players with gigantic hands, but Kawhi receives so much attention to his huge palm and fingers, that Shaquille O’Neal recently decided to boast his natural gift as well!
Kawhi Leonard is nicknamed the ‘Klaw’ due to his above-average hand length. It is not the normal length that one would have for his 6’7” height, but that’s just how he’s built.
The LA Clippers star recently went viral on the internet as he was spotted holding two water bottles in his hand and Shaquille O’Neal decided to join in on the fun!
