Kawhi Leonard to Miss Several Weeks Due to Knee Injury

Kawhi Leonard of the Toronto Raptors is set to miss several weeks because of swelling in his left knee. This news comes after he was unable to complete offseason workouts with the team, prompting a cautious approach to his return.

Leonard had a promising start to the season, averaging 19.5 points, 7.5 rebounds, and 1.5 assists in two games. However, the Raptors' excitement has diminished following his injury and a recent loss without him on the court.

With Leonard out, the Raptors will rely on players like Scottie Barnes, who has struggled early in the season. Barnes recently went scoreless in a game, and the team will need him to improve alongside RJ Barrett and Immanuel Quickley to navigate this challenging period.
