Los Angeles Clippers Allegedly Paid Kawhi Leonard $28 Million For ‘No-Show Job’ To Get Around NBA Salary Cap

#KawhiLeonard’s contract is the center of attention this morning.

According to an investigation by #ESPN’s Pablo Torre, the Los Angeles #Clippers allegedly paid superstar Kawhi $28 million for a “no-show job” with a tree-planting company. The deal, funded with $50 million from the Clippers, was supposedly structured to bypass #NBA salary cap rules. Allegedly, Kawhi never performed any work for the company, but the arrangement was presented as a legitimate endorsement deal.

If the allegations are confirmed, the Clippers could face significant penalties from the NBA for circumventing the league’s salary cap system. The alleged scheme raises questions about the use of creative endorsement deals to manipulate team finances, and it could have broader implications for how NBA contracts and endorsements are structured in the future.
