The wait is over! Kawhi Leonard is off to the Toronto Raptors and that team's odds of winning a Championship in 2019 were now at 45/1, sixth shortest.
Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN:
Toronto has reached agreement in principle to acquire San Antonio's Kawhi Leonard for package that includes DeMar DeRozan, league sources tell ESPN. Trade is larger on both sides, and players are still being informed of their inclusion in the deal. Trade call with league today.
He followed up with this tweet:
The San Antonio-Toronto deal has been close for days and nearly fallen apart several times, league sources tell ESPN. Ujiri wanted to inform DeRozan himself late last night, in hours before trade call. DeRozan and longtime teammate Kyle Lowry talked hours ago, sources said.
The Raptors were not even listed among oddsmakers choices of teams where he would land initially.
