League sources told @ClutchPoints that negotiations between the Clippers and Raptors involving Kawhi Leonard are ongoing. The framework of Brandon Ingram, Gradey Dick, and a 1st-round pick going to LA is said to be agreed upon, but the Clippers have still been pushing for more value. Sources say the Clippers have been trying to add Jamal Shead in the package as well. LA views him as extra value needed for taking Gradey Dick in the deal. Draft compensation is the other hold up in negotiations right now. Raptors are wanting to give up an immediate first (2027/2028) instead of one in the future. Clippers have wanted two firsts, one being in the future, especially if Shead is not included. Whether it's an additional first, a swap, the inclusion of Shead, or some combination of this, the Clippers are still pushing for more than what was originally offered to finalize a trade involving Kawhi Leonard returning to Toronto.

I still don’t understand this Kawhi trade talk. TOR needs upgrades at PG, C and to clear money to re-sign RJ. Trading for and re-signing Kawhi gives them less money to for RJ and you’re also trading away assets you might need to dump IQ or Jak contracts. And why does LAC want BI?

it so easy... to fall for @mmabrey1
