    Kawhi Leonard's led the Los Angeles Clippers into the second round of the NBA basketball play-offs


    The forward's scored a team-high 33 points and pulled down 14 rebounds in his side's 111-97 win over the Dallas Mavericks in game six of their first round western conference series.

    They've claimed it 4-2 and will play either the Houston Rockets or Oklahoma City Thunder in the next round.

    Houston leads that series 3-2, with game six tomorrow.
