The Toronto Raptors will reportedly be without Kawhi Leonard longer than they initially anticipated.

Leonard will be sidelined at least three-to-four weeks due to a knee injury, according to NBA Insider Chris Haynes on Thursday.

The report comes just two days after the Raptors announced Leonard would be sidelined for at least a week because of swelling in his knee.

Now Toronto (3-1) reportedly wants to wait until the swelling subsides before he is re-examined.
