Kawhi Trade on Hold Until Investigation Clears | Los Angeles Clippers News

Raptors and Clippers are reportedly close to a blockbuster trade sending Kawhi Leonard back to Toronto for Brandon Ingram, Gradey Dick, and future picks—but it’s on hold due to a looming investigation. If Kawhi’s contract is voided because of Clippers’ alleged wrongdoing, the deal collapses and Ingram/Dick stay put. A suspension wouldn’t derail it, but contract invalidation? That’s the deal-breaker. The Raptors are playing it safe with 14 players on roster, banking on flexibility while they wait for the investigation to resolve—history echoes with the Joe Smith fiasco, where shady dealings led to voided contracts and lost draft picks.
