Kawhi Leonard is headed back to the Toronto Raptors after the teams agree to a trade involving the Los Angeles Clippers, according to multiple reports citing unnamed sources familiar with the talks. All outlets describe the move as a reunion with Leonard, who previously led Toronto to its 2019 NBA championship and was the Finals MVP that year.
The reported agreement sends Toronto pieces to the Clippers in exchange for Leonard. Sources say the Raptors are sending Brandon Ingram and Gradey Dick, along with a package of draft selections, including two first-round picks, two second-round picks, and a pick swap.
One report notes that the trade has not yet received the required league approval, citing information provided to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the deal is pending. Overall, the coverage aligns on the teams involved, Leonard’s return to Toronto, and the broad structure of the player-and-picks package being exchanged.
