Drake May Have Clinched Kawhi Leonard To Raptors With OVO Role

by HHL JT

Jalen Rose is reporting there is a 99 percent chance Kawhi Leonard is returning to the Raptors on a short term deal.

Others say the Lakers (but not the Clippers) are still in play.

If he does end up staying with the defending champs, some credit may go to team ambassador Drake, who was at the meeting between Kawhi and the Raptors yesterday and who offered Kawhi something the Lakers couldn't.

Kawhi Update: Raptors had strong meeting yesterday. Drake heavily involved. Talked of having Kawhi involved w/his OVO record label. Kawhi in deep soul searching. Wants Lakers but wants to make sure Big 3 will fit/work. Clippers out. It’s btwn Lakers & Raptors. Very close.
