The Los Angeles Clippers have hit a standstill in their front office, leaving the pending trade that would send Kawhi Leonard to the Toronto Raptors on hold.

Following Clippers owner Steve Ballmer's formal acceptance and compliance with historic NBA penalties, the franchise has not yet determined who will take over as interim governor, according to reporting from BasketNews via NBA insider Jake Fischer.

Without an authorized temporary leader in place to oversee operations and approve roster moves, the organization remains unable to complete the deal to send Leonard back to Toronto.
