Fred VanVleet Had Hilarious NSFW Quote About Kawhi Leonard Possibly Leaving Raptors in Free Agency
By Michael Luciano
Even though Canada remains in a state of complete euphoria after the Toronto Raptors won their first NBA championship, the taste of victory could be soured by the very real possibility that Kawhi Leonard bolts in free agency after winning the title.
Raptors point guard Fred VanVleet is well aware that this could happen, but isn't too worried if Kawhi opts for LA over Toronto.
Kawhi, who grew up near Compton, has widely been expected to either re-sign with the Raptors or sign with the Los Angeles Clippers, who could potentially pair him with another max free agent.
The Raptors certainly have a lot to offer Kawhi, as he has the ability to run the East for the next few years. In addition, the Raptors can pay him more than any other team.
Given how quiet Kawhi is, everyone remains in the dark on what his free agency plans are. While Toronto would undeniably be sad to see him go, he could leave as the conquering hero who brought a franchise their first title, which could soften the blow a little but.
