Story summary

Kawhi Leonard will miss at least another week of the Toronto Raptors' season due to swelling in his left knee, according to an update from the NBA team on November 10, 2026. The seven-time All-Star last played on October 25 against the Washington Wizards and is averaging 19.5 points, 7.5 rebounds, and 1.5 assists over two games this season. Leonard was acquired by the Raptors in a blockbuster deal with the Los Angeles Clippers during the previous off-season, following salary cap circumvention penalties imposed on both him and the Clippers. Given his current injury status, it is uncertain if he will play at all in November; missing 15 games would likely disqualify him from awards and All-NBA team selection this year.
