The future of Kawhi Leonard remains uncertain. While the NBA continues to block his transfer to the Toronto Raptors due to an investigation into an alleged salary cap avoidance case, a new report claims that the forward also signed a multimillion-dollar contract with Daktronics since joining the Los Angeles Clippers in 2019, an agreement that, according to a source cited by the Pablo Torre Finds Out podcast, may have been used to circumvent the salary cap. The league is already investigating another alleged deal with the company Aspiration, and the Raptors have chosen not to finalize the signing until the investigations are completed.
