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…
Damn, what worst could happen, I do hope it will turn out to be just kind of mistake because that's a huge blow for Leonard's career imo.That's a dumb move for the Clippers organization and Leonard's management, they could have better answer in it.
It's worth noting that the NBA has already announced that it will open an investigation. By the way, the Clippers are already hastily denying that they have broken any cap rules. So, let's hope that Leonard doesn't end up being made the scapegoat in this situation, which could potentially ruin his NBA career.
