Kawhi Leonard’s time with the San Antonio Spurs may soon be over.

A person familiar with the situation said Leonard told the Spurs he would like to be traded this summer, the clearest sign that the relationship between the team and the All-Star is in disrepair.

Leonard played in only nine game with the Spurs this past season because of a leg injury – officially described as right quadriceps tendinopathy, and the Spurs listed him as out on their injury reports for much of the year citing “injury management.” In the 2016-17 season, he averaged a career-best 25.5 points and was third in the MVP voting.
