Leonard Traded to Raptors for Ingram, Dick, and Picks
The Toronto Raptors acquired Kawhi Leonard from the Los Angeles Clippers in exchange for Brandon Ingram, Gradey Dick and future draft picks, per NBA.com.
Toronto acquired Kawhi Leonard from Los Angeles for Brandon Ingram, Gradey Dick and future draft picks, per NBA.com. The trade sends two players and draft capital to the Clippers in return for an established perimeter player.
Veteran players may report from September 28 and training camps open on September 29 for the 2026-27 season, per NBA.com. That leaves Leonard barely a day with his new teammates before camp formally opens.
The cost for Toronto is steep: two players off the roster plus future draft assets. The Clippers gain new talent to build around. Both franchises have reset their rosters heading into the new season.
The tight timeline into camp will test whether Leonard can integrate immediately with Toronto's core, and how quickly that happens will shape the Raptors' season outlook.
