The major sports networks are saying that they are almost confirmed that Leonard is heading back to the Raptors. The deal of Kawhi Leonard with the Lakers was always too problematic to happen. Apparently, Leonard doesn’t like the way LeBron James behaves with his teammates and everyone else feels like a sidekick in the team.

Free agent Kawhi Leonard is expected to allow the Toronto Raptors to make the final meeting presentation among the teams visiting with him in Los Angeles next week, league sources tell ESPN. The incumbent often prefers to go last in trying to convince a player to stay with team.

The Lakers tried their best for the two stars to sit down and talk it out, but it might not have worked out. There could be some other reasons also for the deal to not happen, such as the Lakers not having any good players except LeBron James and Anthony Davis. All in all, Kawhi Leonard going back to the Toronto Raptors will bring a lot of trouble for the Lakers.

Earlier, the Lakers had the best odds to win the NBA 2020 finals because of their solid team line-up. But the scenario is slowly changing, as the odds for Raptors have gone up from 14/1 to 6/1 after the Leonard deal rumors. At the same time, Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving playing together for the Brooklyn Nets is also a major contender for the next finals.

If we consider the rumors to be true, then Leonard could soon announce his decision to the world media. There will be a shift in the power and other free agents will also decide to pick a team after the deal is done.
