Kawhi Leonard drama could drag them into territory Wolves fans know too well

The Minnesota Timberwolves faced a gigantic penalty for trying to circumvent the salary cap in signing Joe Smith, and the Clippers could be in for even worse after Pablo Torre uncovered a massive Kawhi Leonard scandal. LA’s superstar was being paid $28 million to do nothing for a company that Clippers owner Steve Ballmer backed. It appears to be a way to give Kawhi more money without facing NBA salary cap restrictions. The league served Minnesota harsh punishments and will likely do the same to the Clippers if they are found guilty of what Torre suggests.
