Kawhi Leonard may have gotten away with double dribble in 2 OT

Kawhi Leonard

Kawhi Leonard may have benefited from the referees missing a double dribble by him during Game 3 of the Eastern Conference finals on Sunday night.

Leonard led his Toronto Raptors with 36 points in their 119-112 win in double overtime against the Milwaukee Bucks. In the second overtime, he made a dunk in transition and appeared to have gotten away with a double dribble:

You can see he appeared to touch the ball with his left hand by the three-point line around the same time he was touching it with his right. He then went in for the dunk, finishing with his left.

The dunk made it 108-105 with 3:13 left in the extra period. There was still plenty of time for Milwaukee to come back even despite Toronto getting away with one there. Coming back was a tough task with Eric Bledsoe and Khris Middleton both shooting 3-for-16 and Giannis Antetokounmpo fouling out of the game.
