Controversially, the Toronto Raptors traded DeMar DeRozan away, in exchange for Kawhi Leonard. Fans felt the Raptors were disloyal for trading their franchise player to the Spurs. Because of this, many have hoped Kawhi Leonard doesn’t re-sign with Toronto.
Following the Raptors’ play, in Game 1, where the Orlando Magic beat them, led by D.J. Augustin, many felt Leonard may leave. Tonight, he stepped up as a leader, and dropped 37 points. Aside from Leonard’s strong play, Kyle Lowry scored 22 points, making up for scoring zero.
