The Toronto Raptors are now the betting favorite to sign Kawhi Leonard this summer, according to BetOnline.ag.

The online betting site has the Raptors at -150 to sign Leonard this offseason. Kawhi becomes an unrestricted free agent once he declines his 2019-20 player option with Toronto.

All season long, we have heard about the Los Angeles Clippers being the favorite to sign Leonard, who's from California. The Clippers have cap space to sign two max contract players.

However, with Leonard leading the Raptors to their first-ever NBA Finals, it looks like the momentum is in Toronto's favor. Some believe there's no way Leonard can leave the Raptors now after hearing a whole country chant his name and “MVP” after clinching the Eastern Conference this past Saturday.

We'll see what happens this summer, but Leonard leaving the Raptors for the Clippers isn't a sure thing anymore. Will Kawhi take a meeting with the Clippers? Probably. However, Toronto can offer Leonard the most money and a fifth year on his deal.

The Clippers are now +150 to sign Leonard. The Los Angeles Lakers (+400), Brooklyn Nets (+600) and New York Knicks (+1000) are also on the board.

Game 1 of the NBA Finals starts on Thursday in Toronto. The Raptors are underdogs in the series. If Leonard is somehow able to defeat the Warriors in these Finals, fans in Canada might not even care if he leaves. They'll just be thankful for the ring and memories.
