While NBA fans and teams are eager for Kawhi Leonard to make a decision and end his free agency, the NBA Finals MVP deserves credit for working through the process thoroughly and carefully.
Leonard is the biggest name to have to turn around after a championship celebration this season and make a monumental free agency decision. The athlete reportedly asked teams to keep quiet on his conversations with them, wanting leaks eliminated in a process that is understandably weighty.
The board man will get paid, and the impact of Leonard’s decision on the other players left to sign contracts this summer will be great, but until then, Leonard’s process is one worth respecting.
