Shai Gilgeous-Alexander on Kawhi Leonard returning to the Toronto Raptors, and what that could do for the growth of basketball in Toronto/Canada:
“As long as I can remember, Toronto has loved the Raptors. The country’s loved the Raptors. I don’t think that’ll ever change, no matter who plays for them.”
“Adding a guy like that to your roster, no matter where you’re from or what team you are, amplifies everything, your fanbase, your ability as a team on both ends of the floor.”
“He’s a really good player. Toronto should be a good team next year for sure.”

Kawhi and his family were living for free in Toronto. Didn't pay for food didn't pay for housing.
The whole country was behind him, no state or team can create that feeling for him.
The love Canada showed him keeps him up at night.
