Toronto Raptors

The NBA has fined the Clippers $30 million and penalized Kawhi Leonard $700,000 over cap circumvention tied to his collapsed Aspiration sponsorship.

Domantas Sabonis hired CAA agent Aaron Mintz this offseason, the same agent who engineered Trae Young's trade to Washington and Walker Kessler's move to the Lakers, ESPN's Brian Windhorst reported on the Hoop Collective podcast.

A trade idea floated by Heavy would send Dalton Knecht from the Lakers to Toronto for Jamison Battle's expiring $2.3M salary and a 2029 second-round pick.

ESPN's Ramona Shelburne said on ESPN LA's Mason & Ireland that the Clippers are comfortable keeping Kawhi Leonard if Toronto backs out of the trade, which has been on hold since July 9 amid the NBA's investigation into the team.

The NBA's cap-circumvention probe into Kawhi Leonard and the Clippers has resolved without voiding his contract, and ESPN's Shams Charania reports nothing now blocks his earlier-agreed trade back to Toronto. Leonard told Charania he wants a clean slate with the Raptors.

Sacramento and Toronto came close to a Domantas Sabonis trade at February's deadline, with RJ Barrett part of the package heading back, per ESPN's Anthony Slater.

Domantas Sabonis is expected to remain with the Kings after months of trade exploration produced no deal, with team sources saying he is willing to fully recommit to the roster.

Toronto has reached an agreement with guard Andre Jackson Jr. on a training camp contract, per Michael Scotto of HoopsHype, citing sources.

Toronto has agreed to a two-way contract with big man Trey Jemison. Jemison spent the 2025-26 season on a two-way deal with New York, appearing in 13 NBA games with averages of 1.0 point and 1.4 rebounds in 6.3 minutes.

According to CBS Sports, a blockbuster deal sending Kawhi Leonard from the Clippers to the Raptors was agreed to in June but has still not been completed.
