Kawhi Leonard, according to one report, will re-sign with the Raptors on a short-term deal.
Here’s corroborating evidence.
A player buying a house in a certain market is a classic free-agency rumor. It’s often untrue.
Sometimes, it’s true but misconstrued. Players sometimes live somewhere other than where their team is located.
But Leonard probably didn’t buy a property in Toronto unless he’s re-signing with the Raptors. He’s not leaving for the Clippers then spending his offseasons in Toronto.
Did Leonard actually buy a place in Toronto? I don’t know. But the possibility of this report being true is intriguing. These tidbits can reveal a player’s plan.
After hearing this, I’d nudge the odds of Leonard re-signing slightly higher. But this still remains a great unknown.
