Kawhi Leonard extension, Jalen Duren sign-and-trades, Knicks negotiations, & Hawks-Hornets trade
We discuss the top transactions and rumors from the past week. Kawhi Leonard extended with the Raptors for two years, worth $115 million. The Pistons increased their offer to Jalen Duren to five years, $200 million, but he might prefer a change of scenery. Meanwhile, the Knicks may be far apart on extensions with Karl-Anthony Towns and Josh Hart. And the Hornets and Hawks made a financially motivated trade.
