Kawhi Leonard has filed a lawsuit against Nike claiming he designed the logo that appeared on his Nike apparel, but the company copyrighted it without Leonard's consent, reports Portland Business Journal's Matthew Kish.
According to Kish, the lawsuit was filed Monday in United States District Court in Southern California.
Last week, the New York Times' Marc Stein reported the Clippers have "quietly looked into ... purchasing the rights to Leonard's 'Klaw' logo," which is owned by Nike. Stein reported the team was considering purchasing the logo in their pursuit of Leonard, who will be a free agent at the end of the season.
