There Are Odds For Who Will Reveal Kawhi Leonard’s Free Agency Decision

All of the basketball world is sitting and waiting for Kawhi Leonard to decide where he is going to spend the foreseeable future. He has apparently met with the Los Angeles Clippers and Lakers, and next, Leonard will meet with the Raptors in Toronto, news which apparently led to Canada losing its collective mind.

Following his eventual meeting with Toronto, two things will happen. First is that, at some point, Leonard will make his decision. Second, someone is going to announce it, which is why you probably have push notifications turned on for a while lot of people right now. On that second thing, would you like to see odds on who will break the news? No? You never even considered that would be a thing? Well guess what, they exist.

So the obvious thing here, outside of that Woj and Shams are rightly the clear favorites, is the sheer disrespect to a few individuals. For example, leaving Chris Haynes off the first roll out of odds is absolutely while, and a whole lot of people in the know in Los Angeles need some more love, if only because the second the Lakers get news, someone(s) in L.A. will hear about it. The same goes for Toronto media folks, but to a lesser extent, because a feature of the Lakers organization is that someone will always talk.

Betting money on Leonard’s Twitter, which has tweeted four times and last tweeted in 2015, or the team accounts seems like a horrible wager. We also need LeBron James’ Twitter account on here somewhere, because him ominously tweeting “what it do baby” 10 minutes before news breaks seems like an extremely plausible possibility. Also, for the love of god, do not bet on this if you can find a place to take your money. Spend that on a pizza or something.
