The Toronto Raptors announced that Kawhi Leonard has successfully completed treatment for his injured left knee. This marks progress after his absence for five consecutive games, during which Leonard dealt with swelling. Although no specific timetable for his return has been set, the team will provide an update on his status in one week. Leonard was previously a late scratch for a game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. The Raptors have a 2-3 record without him, but achieved a 125-118 comeback victory over the Los Angeles Clippers, the team from which he was reacquired in a major offseason trade.
