While the Toronto Raptors are still hopeful they will complete a trade for Kawhi Leonard this summer, a new rumor claims the fear of his contract being voided
Let’s assume the NBA concludes the investigation, Kawhi will be suspended for 20 games, the Raptors are comfortable with that, and they negotiate a lower price with the Clippers (i.e., minimal-to-no draft picks). How would you approach upgrading the team with Kawhi for Ingram/Dick still complete but with multiple picks to work with? submitted by /u/perrieh [link] [comments]
I couldn’t remember the source, but did recall that the FO office did contact the league office prior to the trade. Here is the reference I found from Grange [everybody’s favourite reporter]. I don’t know if anyone else reported it? Now I’m wondering what exchange - if any - there was between our FO and the league? “Per sources, the Raptors “did their due diligence” with the NBA prior to making their most recent trade for Leonard and the guidance they received made them confident that they co...
A proposed trade that would send Kawhi Leonard back to the Toronto Raptors has been put on hold following an NBA investigation into Leonard's 2024 contract with the Los Angeles Clippers.

NBAStephen Silas is set to join Darko Rajakovic's staff with the Toronto Raptors as an assistant coach. Silas was previously the head coach of the Rockets for three seasons and had a stint as a lead assistant on Monty Williams' staff with the Pistons. Mike Batiste nor James Wade are expected to return to Rajakovic's staff this upcoming season.
The Celtics are waiving guard Dalano Banton, per Adam Himmelsbach of The Boston Globe (Twitter link). Banton’s $2.8MM salary for 2026/27 was non-guaranteed, which means Boston won’t incur a cap hit by releasing the five-year NBA veteran. The Raptors selected Banton, a Toronto native, with the 46th overall pick in the 2021 draft. He spent […]
