This Changes Everything For The Toronto Raptors…
The Raptors agreed to trade for Kawhi Leonard. They are not allowed to touch the deal.
Behind that one sentence is an NBA investigation into $48 million in alleged hidden payments, a bankrupt company, a federal fraud conviction, a 35-year-old superstar, and the ghost of Masai Ujiri, now running a rival that wanted the same player.
Toronto isn’t chasing a championship. They’re chasing 2019. And the closer they get to it, the more you have to wonder if there’s anything there at all.
They only traded bi and gradey while keeping all their depth and only 3 first round picks with the 2027 picks being a swap
