Sidelined by a nagging quad injury, San Antonio Spurs forward Kawhi Leonard<\/strong> has only played in nine games this season. Leonard’s issues this season aren’t just injury related though as according to ESPN’s Michael C. Wright and Ramona Shelburne, the Spurs star’s contract extension talks with Jordan Brand have “stalled.”<\/p>\n Leonard’s representatives reportedly turned down a $20 million extension with Jordan Brand because they felt like the deal didn’t match the Spurs star’s accomplishment and stature around the League, which is backed by two Defensive Player of the Year Awards, one NBA Finals MVP and top 3 NBA MVP voting finishes in the last two seasons.<\/p>\n
