Kawhi Leonard requested the presence of only Magic Johnson and Jeanie Buss attend his meeting with the Los Angeles Lakers.
NBA rules forbid Johnson from being part of official team meetings with prospective free agents.
Johnson was not asked by the Lakers or Buss to participate in free agency pitches.
"A friend of mine called and says Kawhi wants to meet with you," Johnson told ESPN on Friday. "I said no problem. I'm available if that's what this man wants."
