Top 20 Most Impactful Acquisitions of 2018

2. Kawhi Leonard

The Toronto Raptors went all-in on this season by trading incumbent star DeMar DeRozan for Kawhi Leonard, who is on an expiring contract.

Still, the early returns look like they are paying off, as Leonard is having an MVP-caliber season in Toronto. Leonard is averaging 26.8 points, 8.4 rebounds and 3.1 assists, while playing his always excellent defense.

Leonard has led the Raptors to an NBA-best 25-10 record.
