Kawhi Leonard has returned to New York to continue his rehab for his lingering right quad injury under the supervision of outside medical personnel.
Leonard returned to New York on Monday and there's no timetable for his possible return to San Antonio.
The Spurs have six games remaining in the regular season, which limits the odds of Leonard returning.
Leonard has been using the National Basketball Players Association headquarters gymnasium facilities in recent days.
Leonard is eligible for a five-year, $217 million supermax contract extension this summer with the Spurs. Leonard could also become a free agent in 2019.
Leonard left San Antonio in the aftermath of a team meeting on March 17th.
Leonard initially sought treatment within the organization before consulting with a specialist in New York on Jan. 16.
Leonard resumed working out in San Antonio on Feb. 27, and the intensity of his workouts has varied.
The Houston Rockets have signed Tim Quarterman to a two-year deal.
Houston will hold a team option on Quarterman's contract for the 18-19 season. The Rockets used multiple players on a team option or non-guaranteed contract last offseason to acquire Chris Paul.
Quarterman is averaging 8.9 points, 4.3 rebounds and 5.3 assists in 25.6 minutes per game this season in the G League with the Agua Caliente Clippers.
Quarterman appeared in 16 games last season with the Blazers.
The 10-day contract of Okaro White has expired and he did not play for the Cleveland Cavaliers while under contract. Cleveland now has two open roster spots.
White has been working himself back into game shape after suffering a broken foot.
The Cavaliers aren't required to sign another player for another 10 days but a source says another player will likely be signed sooner.
Kendrick Perkins remains on the Cavaliers' radar and could be signed. Perkins expected to be signed by the Cavaliers after the trade deadline.
The Cavaliers could also re-sign White or convert the two-way contract of John Holland into an NBA contract.

While Jason Kidd's relationship with Giannis Antetokounmpo was one of the stronger ones with a player he had, sources say Milwaukee's franchise player grew weary of his relentless critiques.
Before Kidd was fired by the Bucks, Antetokounmpo called him and offered to help save his job. Kidd revealed that conversion to ESPN's Ramona Shelburne. Antetokounmpo was disappointed that Kidd revealed the private exchange.
"Did I think I lost the locker room? I didn't think I did," Kidd said. "My style? My voice was only heard when it needed to be heard. I let the other coaches do as much talking as I did, because I knew as a player, if you hear one voice, you can lose the locker room."
The New York Knicks will have Early Bird Rights on Trey Burke in 2019, which will allow them to go over the cap to re-sign him to a deal worth 105 percent greater than the average salary of 18-19 for up to four seasons.
The average salary for 16-17 was $7.8 million.
The Knicks will have Burke on a cap hold of just $1.6 million during the 2019 offseason, which will be significant for them as they're expected to be active in free agency.
Burke has played well for the Knicks since being brought up from the G League.
The Chicago Bulls have been confident they will re-sign Zach LaVine in restricted free agency.
LaVine was asked if he believes he's worth a max contract.
“There are things you work for,” LaVine said. “Max players are top of the line. There are a lot of dudes in the NBA who haven’t been top of the line because of money situations or the cap is bigger or a weird offseason.
“You are what you’re worth. Obviously, you can’t say no to getting one. I see myself being an elite player in this league. I’m going to work for that every day until I get there.”
LaVine is represented by Bill Duffy.
“There’s a lot that goes into it,” LaVine said. “The agency and front office, they’re both trying to get the better of each (other), but I think this situation is a little bit different because there’s mutual respect on both sides and understanding. There’s no bad blood between us, so I think everything will go smoothly.
“I’m not stressed at all. Whatever the number is or terms they’re going to come to, it will happen. That’s why I have great agents. And we have respect, communication and understanding with the front office (so) we’ll let that work itself out.
“I can’t let it get to me. It’s not going to. I have to prepare myself for next year and be ready to take on a bigger role and help the team get better.”
