Kawhi Leonard could be headed back to Toronto in a blockbuster deal that sends him to the Raptors alongside Brandon Ingram, Gradey Dick, and multiple draft picks. With his current contract expiring after the 2026-27 season, Kawhi’s only two potential landing spots for a long-term deal are Toronto or San Antonio — and Toronto’s championship pedigree and his own history there make this move feel inevitable. After leading the Raptors to their first title in 2019, Kawhi now returns to a playoff-bound Raptors squad aiming for a third ring. Meanwhile, the Clippers, despite Kawhi’s career-high scoring and their 42-40 record, are pivoting toward the future — possibly centered around the top-5 pick in the 2026 draft — leaving Kawhi as the centerpiece of a new chapter in Toronto.
