Leonard played just nine games this season, and his time with the Spurs could be nearing an end.

ESPN.com's Ramona Shelburne and Michael C. Wright recently reported that there's tension between Leonard and the Spurs that's stemming from uncertainty about the player's quadriceps injury this season.

This could lead him to head to Los Angeles, whether via trade this offseason or via free agency in 2019.

"That's why [the Lakers] are spinning it into 'wait till next year,'" an executive told Bleacher Report's Ken Berger. "They know they can get Kawhi."

It's possible the Southern California native was just taking in a baseball game in his hometown and this means nothing, but it's likely enough to get Lakers fans excited about the possibilities.
