Toronto Raptors forward Kawhi Leonard “looks remarkable” during his summer workouts, according to Ashish Mathur of Amico Hoops. Leonard reportedly is 100 percent with zero limitations.
The Raptors pulled the trigger on a trade for The Klaw earlier this summer, stunning other Eastern Conference contenders like the Boston Celtics and Philadelphia 76ers, who were said to have interest in acquiring him.
Leonard was recently seen in a photo alongside fellow stars LeBron James and Kevin Durant, all taking part in a pickup basketball game in his native Los Angeles.
While no footage of the run was released, Leonard has had combined workouts in New York while recovering from his quad injury, as well as the time he has put in to acclimate himself to his new team — making this recent run a conclusion that he's back from injury after only playing in nine regular-season games last season.
It's worthy to note that Leonard has already been cleared to return to game action since before the middle of the 2017-18 season, with San Antonio Spurs doctors giving him the full clearance before he chose to remain on the sideline due to his own discomfort.
Leonard passed his physical upon arriving in Toronto, making his health no longer a reason for concern.
The Raptors will, however, be mostly concerned of convincing him to remain with them over the summer, as the top-five forward has reportedly already made it clear in the past that he would like to play in his hometown of Los Angeles.
