Board Man gets another ring.
Kawhi Leonard is back in Toronto for the first time since signing as a free agent with the Los Angeles Clippers over the summer and the superstar will be the centre of attention on Wednesday as the Toronto Raptors present the two-time NBA Finals MVP with his 2018-19 championship ring.
Leonard made arguably the biggest impact a one-year player has made for any Toronto sports franchise as he guided the Raptors to their first NBA title last season, and the 28-year-old forward remains one of the most popular athletes in southern Ontario despite his departure.

Of course, there will also be a game of basketball to be contested after Leonard gets his much-deserved piece of jewelry. The Raptors last faced Leonard and the Clippers on Nov. 11, holding their former star to just 12 points in a 98-88 defeat. Toronto will look to extract a bit of revenge for that early-season loss, although the Raptors will have to contend with a healthy Paul George this time around after Los Angeles' other elite offseason acquisition missed the teams' first meeting.
