What happened

Toronto said Kawhi Leonard is out at least one week after left-knee swelling forced him to miss Sunday’s loss in Minnesota.

The Raptors said imaging showed no acute injury, and Leonard will begin treatment and rehabilitation before being re-evaluated next week.

Toronto may need to keep adjusting its wing rotation until Leonard is re-evaluated, but the team has not announced a firmer return date.
