What happened: Toronto heads into training camp with Leonard's return finalized after the league closed its investigation and the commissioner signed off on the trade. The move removes the biggest administrative hurdle hanging over the Raptors less than a week before camp opens.

Why it matters: That shifts the focus from league process to lineup decisions, practice reps and how quickly Toronto can build continuity around Leonard. It also closes the loop on Toronto's Leonard return after a delay tied to the NBA probe.

What to watch: Training camp is the next checkpoint as Leonard begins work with Toronto. Early preseason usage should offer the first read on how the Raptors plan to integrate him.
