Kawhi Leonard Reportedly Becomes Free Agent After Declining Player Option Leonard is "believed to be seriously <br />considering re-signing with the Raptors," <br />according to Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports. The Raptors star gave up about $21.3 million <br />to become an unrestricted free agent. Toronto can offer Leonard a five-year, <br />$189.7 million max extension, while other teams can offer up to a four-year, $140.6 million contract. Leonard led the Raptors to their first <br />NBA championship in franchise history. He won his second NBA Finals MVP, <br />averaging 30.5 points, 9.1 rebounds <br />and 3.9 assists in the 2019 playoffs. The chance to play in a large market is still <br />"enticing" to Leonard, according to Haynes. Leonard is reportedly considering the <br />Los Angeles Clippers or Lakers if he <br />does not re-sign with Toronto.
