Clippers-Raptors Kawhi Trade Hits Snags Over Picks and Players
Trade talks between the Clippers and Raptors over Kawhi Leonard have a framework: LA would receive Brandon Ingram, Gradey Dick, and a first-round pick, but the Clippers are pushing for more value, including Jamal Shead to take on Dick’s contract. The teams disagree on which picks to include, with Toronto preferring 2027 or 2028 first-rounders and LA seeking two firsts, including a far-future pick if Shead isn’t involved. Toronto hasn’t moved Collin Murray-Boyles or Ja’Kobe Walter, and the Clippers aren’t being rushed—LA has offered a Leonard extension (not the max), a figure Toronto is more willing to meet, keeping the deal unsettled for now.
