Kawhi Leonard Returns to Raptors in Trade
x/kawhi-leonard
— Sep 11, 2026
The proposed Kawhi Leonard trade between the Clippers and Raptors remains in flux as the Clippers’ front office lacks an interim governor after the NBA imposed a $30 million fine and suspensions on owner Steve Ballmer, Gillian Zucker, and Lawrence Frank for a salary-cap circumvention investigation, complicating league approval of the deal. Despite assurances there is no league-level holdup, internal governance issues and ongoing investigations continue to delay finalizing Leonard’s return to Toronto in exchange for Brandon Ingram, Gradey Dick, and multiple draft assets.

Beal Expected to Wear Paul’s No. 3 for Clippers
x/bradley-beal
— Sep 10, 2026
The Los Angeles Clippers entered a turbulent offseason with Kawhi Leonard’s in-principle trade and league penalties, while Bradley Beal’s decision to wear No. 3 has sparked fan backlash amid the legacy of Chris Paul and questions about whether CP3’s number will be retired. Beal has defended the move, even as reports that Paul’s number was promised to be retired clash with Beal’s new jersey choice and the team’s handling of CP3’s legacy.

Beal choosing number 3 feels disrespectful given how much Paul meant to the Clippers over the years.
