The Los Angeles Lakers are among the teams interested in signing Leonard, although, during an appearance on ESPN’s ‘Get Up’, Adrian Wojnarowski revealed that Leonard will only consider the Clippers and Raptors:
In case you didn’t know…
Leonard joined the Toronto Raptors from the San Antonio Spurs last summer, and during his debut season in Canada, he led the franchise to a first-ever championship. During the postseason, Leonard averaged 30.5 points, 9.1 rebounds and 3.9 assists per game, and his performances earned him a second Finals MVP award.
The heart of the matter
A trio of LeBron James, Kawhi Leonard, and Anthony Davis would have had the potential to be the best in NBA history, although the Lakers will now have to look at other options.
They have been linked with the likes of Kemba Walker and Kyrie Irving, although Jimmy Butler may be a more realistic target.
What’s next?
A lot more light will be shed on Leonard’s future in the coming weeks, especially once the free agency window opens on June 30.
