LeBron James, Kevin Durant and Kawhi Leonard are three of the best forwards in the NBA. They are intense and fierce rivals on the court but sometimes work together in the offseason. The trio had one such session in the summer of 2018.

In the “Podcast P with Paul George,” Phil Handy, a former Lakers coach, shared about working out with them:

“Me and Kawhi were working out. We were preparing to go to Toronto and Bron was in LA. He was like, ‘Phil, let’s get some work in.’ But that was probably one of the most competitive workouts I’ve ever put together.
