This could turn into a big story…
Kawhi Leonard reportedly signed a $28M endorsement with a fraudulent tree-planting company, funded by Clippers owner Steve Ballmer "to circumvent the salary cap rules.”
If this is true it could mean big fines for the Clippers, possible removal of ownership from Ballmer, and maybe even a significant suspension for Leonard. Now we know why he chose the Clippers over the Lakers…
Who’s the source to this news? If true this is a very dumb idea for the Clippers to open more to their salary cap because there’s no way Leonard will accept that amount for the cut in reality and still stays in Clippers.
I hope this is not true since the Klaw career will be tainted due to silly move of the Clippers owner.
Clippers just have a good run because Kawhai is healthy last year and probably will continue this year.
