SAN ANTONIO – The Spurs' Larry O' Brien trophy has jetsetted across the world this summer, traveling more than 47,270 miles since its takeoff from San Antonio.

But just like any traveler knows, sometimes you just need a vacation from your vacation.

The trophy got just that when it was Kawhi Leonard's turn to take the trophy to San Diego for three days.

Leonard told the San Diego Union-Times that the trophy stayed in his condominium the first two days, Aug. 7-8.

"I didn't have any time to do anything with it," Leonard told the newspaper. "My workout schedule is crazy."

So, even the 2-foot beauty wasn't enough to break his commitment to starting the season off strong, which starts in October.

"I'm just a low-key guy," he told the newspaper. "I'm just happy we won it. I don't even care about the trophy. The title matters the most."

That is OK, though, the trophy's chaperone, Spurs communications coordinator Mitch Heckart, was able to relax too... at his hotel's pool.

The trophy did get back to work on the third day, Aug. 9, when Leonard took it to his youth skills camp in his hometown of Moreno Valley. There, fans were able to take photos with the trophy, which is documented on the Spurs' website.
