While the Dallas Mavericks are steadily approaching training camp, there has been an interesting scandal arising on the West Coast. LA Clippers superstar Kawhi Leonard was recently announced to be under investigation by the NBA due to potentially being funneled nearly $30 million under the table through a company called Aspiration that Clippers governor Steve Ballmer has invested heavily in.
While this is still an ongoing investigation by the league, Leonard and the Clippers could be penalized tremendously if these allegations are confirmed. Many insiders don’t think this penalization would be so hefty that Leonard gets suspended longer than a season or gets banned from the league, but the possibility of Leonard’s current contract getting voided by the league seems to be a plausible punishment if the league confirms these allegations.
