The LA Clippers and Toronto Raptors are in serious trade talks involving Kawhi Leonard, according to sources, with discussions taking place over recent weeks as the All-NBA forward enters the final year of his contract worth $50.3 million for the 2026–27 season.
Leonard had been expected to remain in Los Angeles, but sources said the Clippers stopped short of offering a long-term commitment this offseason. That hesitation appears to have shifted the landscape. Representatives for Leonard have since indicated to other teams that he would only consider signing an extension with Toronto if the Clippers ultimately decide to move on, a notable pivot for a player who had previously preferred to stay put.
