Why it matters for Kawhi Leonard

Leonard is still one of the NBA's elite players, coming off a career-best season where he averaged 27.9 points, 6.4 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.9 steals.

He is 35 years old and has battled injuries over the past few seasons, but the Raptors are willing to take a chance on him.

What comes next?

Walter showed promise during the second half of last season, finishing the year as the only Raptor to attempt at least three three-pointers per game while shooting 40 percent from deep.

Murray-Boyles also exceeded expectations in his rookie season, averaging 8.5 points, five rebounds and 1.9 assists while shooting nearly 58 percent from the field in 57 games.

The Raptors are cautious not to empty their cupboard for a player with uncertainty, but they are willing to take a chance on Leonard.
