The LA Clippers have recently been accused of providing Kawhi Leonard, a former player, with a "no-show job" at a tree-planting company, allegedly to circumvent NBA rules about maximum salaries. Documents submitted by a journalist allege that the company, in which the Clippers owner Steve Ballmer had a significant investment, paid Leonard $1.5 million while going bankrupt.
This news raises essential questions about the ethics of basketball contracts and the responsibility of organizations in upholding them. It remains to be seen what further implications this will have for the LA Clippers and the NBA.
The franchise has yet to respond to these allegations. Nonetheless, these revelations have caught the attention of the NBA and raised questions about the integrity of the league and its players.
This isn't the first time the LA Clippers have been embroiled in controversy. Previously, the team was caught up in a tampering scandal. With these latest allegations, the Clippers continue to be a controversial topic within the NBA.
