After signing a $28 million endorsement deal with a company clled Aspiration where Los Angleles Clippers' owner Steve Balmer was a lead investor. Kawhi Leonard never ended up endorsing or doing anything for the company. Balmer now calls that company a fraud, but denies the shady endorsment deal was meant to circumvent the NBA's strict salary cap and insists he wasn't involved in the deal.

Leonard's uncle is his agent and reportedly has a history of asking for illegal things.

So Kawhi Leonard:

- Asked for $15 Million in incentives from the Raptors

-Asked for incentives + luxuries from the Lakers.
