Kawhi Leonard: Toronto Raptors Should Look For Next Superstar Outside the United States
In our article entitled "Kawhi Leonard: How Birthplace, Economics Works Against Superstar Staying With Raptors" we had predicted that Mr Leonard would very much likely head back to the States and to Los Angeles after an NBA Championship. If Mr Leonard was already playing for a U.S. team, his trip back to L.A. would arguably be unlikely. But, for a black American superstar player like Mr Leonard, leaving Canada and going back to the States and preferably to L.A. was a "no-brainer".
NBA championships are driven by a superstar player more so than in football or baseball. If the Raptors ever seek to defend their NBA title they will definitely need to hope they can find a "walk-in" player that has flown under the radar of other NBA teams that the Raptors can invite to a training camp in Toronto.
