Danny Green on his podcast about Kawhi Leonard: “We’ll see what his decision is. Hopefully by later today, it would be great to know.”

I m waving the white flag 
i resigned myself for him being a Laker and them winning the title .

The way Danny Green said it, seems like it doesn't sound optimistic. Rather, sounds like he's headed to Lakerland.

Otherwise, he would've dropped hints of a re-sign and excitement.

Or like many others he doesn’t know where Leonard is going.

By my count, six teams and six 2019 draft picks are held up in the AD trade: Lakers, Pels, Wizards, Hawks, Sixers, and Pistons, with De'Andre Hunter, Jaxson Hayes, Nickeil Alexander-Walker, Bruno Fernando, Didi Silva, and Jordan Bone unable to play SL until this is resolved.

Didi Louzada, the New Orleans Pelicans' #35 pick in the 2019 NBA draft, intends on signing a draft and stash deal with the Sydney Kings as part of the @NBL Next Stars program, a source told ESPN. The Brazilian will receive English tutoring and have a NBA out clause next summer.

He's waiting for Kawhi to make his own FA decision - specifically he's probably leaving Toronto if Kawhi does - and is getting impatient. No need to make it any more complicated than that.

Rumor was he's going to the Mavs if Kawhi leaves.

Maybe everyone is just waiting for the Marcus Morris decision. Ha JK!  Things are pretty quiet on that front. I wonder if he will sign with either of the LA teams once the Leonard decision is made, or if yet another sign and trade is going down which is doubtful.  I was expecting he would make roughly 15 mil a year.

If the Lakers miss on Kawhi, expect Rich Paul to get Morris there.

I never underestimate Jerry West s powers of persuasion.

Poor Dwight cant find a home since leaving Orlando

I’d argue most of that was self inflicted on his part.

Saying Memphis going to buy him out..strange

[NKY fan]

Danny Ainge is probably really envious of the Atlanta and Memphis GMs right now ... they make like 2 trades a day and keep accumulating picks while his hands are tied by the salary cap lol

They'll trade him if they can and waive him if not.  They freed up 3.1M in cap space.  They'll use their cap space for salary dump trade(s).
