Raptors Make Crucial Update On Kawhi Leonard Injury

The Toronto Raptors announced that forward Kawhi Leonard is making positive progress in his recovery from left knee swelling, though he has not yet been cleared for on-court activities. Head coach Darko Rajakovic confirmed that Leonard's body has responded well to specialized treatment received in Los Angeles, with imaging showing no structural damage or acute injury.

Leonard has been sidelined since late October after playing just two games to start the 2026–27 season. While he is reportedly expected to be out for three to four weeks, the Raptors have set no official timetable for his return as they rely on Scottie Barnes, RJ Barrett, and Immanuel Quickley in his absence.
