It’s a poorly-kept secret that the Los Angeles Lakers have their eye ons signing superstar free agents this summer. They will have more salary cap room available than any team in the league, which presumably will be use to target the likes LeBron James and Paul George.
However, another interesting name has popped on the radar recently in San Antonio Spurs star Kawhi Leonard. He has been in an uncomfortable situation with the organization as he rehabbed a quad injury by working with his own doctors away from the team.
Despite what has been a strange situation, a recent report from Ken Berger of Bleacher Report suggests that the Spurs are still resisting teams that are inquiring about a potential trade for Leonard:
Nonetheless, another Western Conference executive said teams are “lining up to try to do something” in the event the Spurs decide to trade Leonard this summer.
