Kids can always be trusted to tell the brutally honest truth, and a pint-sized Spurs fan is no different.

The homework assignment of a 10-year-old named Paiton proves Golden State Warrior Zaza Pachulia has become a household name in San Antonio for the wrong reasons.

The 4th grader turned in a vocabulary assignment on Wednesday that Merriam-Webster and Silver & Black fans would approve for mastering the word "deliberately." Paiton's inspiration came from Pachulia's controversial closeout on Kawhi Leonard during Game 1.

Paiton was had to define the word, use it in a sentence and draw a picture to prove his knowledge.

"To do on purpose with great thought" was the definition Paiton scribbled down, but his usage of the word in the sentence was the real game-winner.

"People deliberately hurt people like in the Spurs game," Paiton wrote in his homework, referring to Zaza Pachulia.

"People deliberately hurt people like in the Spurs game," he said.

For his picture example, Paiton drew stick figures mimicking the fateful moment Leonard landed on Pachulia's leg. He added a sad face on Leonard for emphasis.

Brittany Vara, Paiton's mom, said he came up with the answer "all on his own" with no help from her or her husband. She noticed his response when she gave his assignment a look-over before he turned it in.

"We watched Game 1 at a restaurant and he kept talking about how it was done on purpose," Vara told mySA.com.

The mom said since Paiton turned the assignment in on Wednesday, she has not read what his teacher had to say about his quality work yet.

Give that kid an A+.
