I agree, a message to Toronto fans would go a long way. Similar to how much better Lebron handled his return to Cleveland with the Sports Illustrated piece.
Kawhi mentioned during the playoffs that this year was the most fun he's had playing basketball. A small written piece in a full-page ad in the star mentioning something like that would be a good send-off. It's typically done by long-term, face-of-the-franchise type players, but this was a unique situation and it would show some gratitude for the organization and the city that supported him as best as anyone could of.
It's his decision though and he doesn't come off as a guy who wants to drag out this process.
