Raptors' Kawhi Leonard: 20-point streak broken Friday
Leonard ended Friday's 112-102 victory over the Wizards with 16 points (7-19 FG, 2-8 3Pt), eight rebounds, one assist and three steals in 28 minutes.
Leonard made his impact felt defensively and finished one rebound shy from logging his first double-double of the season. However, his struggles from the floor continued Friday, and he saw his streak of 20-plus point games snapped at 58. Leonard has gone 12-for-36 (33.3 percent) from the field through the first two games of the regular season, but he's still wreaking havoc on the defensive side of the floor while building up on his conditioning. Leonard and Scottie Barnes will have their defensive prowess put to the test Sunday against Anthony Edwards, LaMelo Ball and the Timberwolves.

Raptors' Kawhi Leonard: Ends with four steals Wednesday
Leonard finished with 23 points (5-17 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 11-11 FT), six rebounds, two assists, four steals and one block over 24 minutes in Wednesday's 135-92 win over the Bulls.
Leonard tied Scottie Barnes and Immanuel Quickley for the game high in points. However, what set the 35-year-old apart from the rest were his contributions on the defensive side of the ball. Leonard averaged a career-best 27.9 points along with 6.4 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.9 steals over 32.1 minutes per game in 65 regular-season appearances with the Clippers in 2025-26. The 2011 No. 15 overall pick is certainly still considered an All-Star-caliber player, but he needs to stay healthy, which has been an issue throughout his career.

Raptors' Kawhi Leonard: Scores 21 in preseason debut
Leonard recorded 21 points (6-12 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 5-7 FT), five rebounds and two steals across 17 minutes in Tuesday's 148-98 preseason win over the Knicks.
Leonard made an immediate impact in his preseason debut, leading Toronto in scoring despite playing just 17 minutes. The veteran forward was particularly effective from beyond the arc, knocking down four three-pointers while adding two steals. His efficient performance was an encouraging sign as he prepares for the regular season.

Leonard (not injury related) will make his preseason debut Tuesday against the Knicks, Esfandiar Baraheni of The Athletic reports.
After missing the first two preseason contests, Leonard has the green light to return. The Raptors have brought him along slowly, and it's likely he plays a limited role in his first game with the team.

Raptors' Kawhi Leonard: Easing into camp
Leonard has yet to participate in contact drills and is unlikely to play in Toronto's preseason opener Saturday against Miami, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.
The team has been content with a phased ramp up for Leonard to start training camp, and while coach Darko Rajakovic stated Thursday that the team will consider playing the star forward Saturday, it seems more likely that he'll sit out. Toronto has also indicated that a load management plan has been developed for Leonard ahead of the 2026-27 campaign to keep him healthy over the course of the season, which is something he hasn't been able to accomplish in recent years.

Raptors' Kawhi Leonard: Load management plan in place
Head coach Darko Rajakovic hinted Monday the Raptors will have a management plan for Leonard in 2026-27, per Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca.
Staying on the court has long been a major concern for Leonard, who didn't play in 2021-22 and hasn't made 70 regular-season appearances since 2016-17 with the Spurs. The focus for Toronto will be to keep the star forward healthy throughout the course of the year, which means Leonard could face sporadic absences. Although he carries plenty of risk in fantasy drafts for that caveat, Leonard averaged a career-high 27.9 points, 6.4 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.9 steals per game over 65 regular-season appearances for the Clippers last year.
