The NBA announced on Wednesday that the league would impose sweeping punishments on the LA Clippers and Kawhi Leonard following its investigation into allegations of third-party off-the-court income opportunities given to Leonard. The league found the NBA star and the team had violated the Collective Bargaining Agreement—and “a pattern of misconduct and multiple significant rules violations.”
The investigation was initially conducted from Leonard’s reported $28 million endorsement deal given by Aspiration, a now-bankrupt environmental company and former Clippers sponsor.
