With NBA All-Star Weekend coming to a close, we’re about to embark on the second half of the 2018-19 season, which means the Kawhi Leonard experiment with the Toronto Raptors could also be coming to an end. Just last month, league executives dwindled down Leonard’s options this summer to remaining with the Raptors or going back to […]
Kawhi Leonard has been letting Kevin Durant live in his head rent-free for years, according to ESPN’s Brian Windhorst.

Even Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich stressed that it was “time to move on” once the deal was completed. However, on Saturday, Popovich inexplicably decided to single out Leonard when asked about Patty […]
The NBA has provoked more conspiracy theories than the other three North American professional sports leagues combined. Perhaps, in part, it’s because how visible players are without a helmet or cap obscuring the emotion of the moment, or their interactions with teammates, coaches, referees, and fans. Or, maybe the NBA’s coterie of agents, players, scouts, […]
ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski believes the Los Angeles Clippers have put themselves in “great position” to sign Kawhi Leonard next summer. “What the Clippers are doing right now is very below the radar,” Wojnarowski said on his podcast The Woj Pod. “What they’ve done to put themselves in position.

It’s hard to gauge the veracity of a “whisper,” but we’re gonna try. The Ringer’s Kevin O’Connor included a disarming paragraph about the prospect of LeBron James teaming with Kawhi Leonard and Jimmy Butler in his preview column on Tuesday because both Kawhi and Jimmy will be unrestricted free agents this coming summer: There are whispers around the […]
