Chris Haberstroh of Yahoo! Sports cautions that a Kawhi Leonard free‑agent scenario could ignite a chaotic scramble among top NBA clubs. He notes that the Los Angeles Lakers, Golden State Warriors and New York Knicks are likely to pursue the star forward, potentially creating a frenzy in an already volatile season.
Haberstroh’s remarks highlight the high demand for Leonard’s skill set and the unpredictable nature of free‑agent negotiations, suggesting that the market could become even more turbulent if he signs.
