Kawhi Leonard purchased a $13.3 million, five-acre home in Rancho Santa Fe, located in San Diego County.

The purchase was made through a corporate entity listing Leonard as the manager. The 13,000 square foot home features 7 bedrooms and 10.5 bathrooms.

Leonard went to college at San Diego State University


Raptor fans officially nervous lol

Well, he did go to college there and is a California native.
He will also live some 40-60 years after his playing career is over, so I wouldn't rule out Toronto just yet.

Just like I thought before the season, I still think that much of his decision will revolve around their playoff success.

I'm all for Kawhi leaving Toronto for the Clippers. Makes the road to the finals that much easier for the Celts, and ensures that the Clippers pick that is owed to us conveys in 2020 if it doesn't this year.

Wouldn't devastate Toronto too much since they'd still have Lowry/Ibaka to keep or move for some nice young pieces, and also have some good young talent in Siakam, Anunoby, Van Fleet, ect. Not like they'd suddenly sink and be as bad as ATL or CLE.

True, we would lose a rival if he leaves.
However, I am pretty certain that Lowry/Ibaka have just one OK year in them.
Father time.

I don't see this as a big deal at all, can't imagine he is going to commute from San Diego to LA with that traffic everyday so even if he did go to LA he would still need to get a condo or whatever. If this house was a 30 minute drive from the Clippers practice facility then this would be spicy.

I think Kawhi likes San Diego and wants to live there in the off season and after he retires so he bought a house.

I wouldn't think a guy that went to school in Portland Maine and then later bought a house in Portland Maine did it because he was planning on joining the Celtics for example.

 Let's spin this back the other way, he's leaving for Los Angeles next year.

Maybe he wants the Phillip Rivers commute.

 if you were a betting man would you say that this would favor him signing in Toronto or him signing in California.

Not sure this means anything.  He went to school down there. 

San Diego is reallllllly nice, if you've never been.  I can understand why a person with the money to buy a house there would do so.

He actually bought a house in Toronto earlier this season though.  Why would he buy a house in Toronto if he had no intention of staying in Toronto?  Most players just rent a nice condo or house downtown if they get traded some where and they don't actually purchase a house.  I'd say that is a much bigger indicator of future intentions then a guy buying a home where he went to college which doesn't actually have a NBA team.

Don't most NBA players have a place in Southern California?

Also, if he's planning on playing for LA, why did he buy a house over two hours from LA?

He could definitely leave Toronto this summer but I don't put much stock in this meaning anything.

id say if anything it’s evidence of him signing in Toronto,  but given he has multiple houses it probably means nothing. 

But someone buying a house in San Diego is in no way evidence they plan to work in Los Angeles.  If he signs with LA he will likely buy a house in one of the neighborhoods around there like Malibu (where kg lives) or Brentwood (where LeBron and my grandma live).
