Clippers Face Historic Sanctions Over Kawhi Leonard Free Agency Deal

The NBA has issued historic penalties against the Clippers for salary cap circumvention related to Kawhi Leonard's free agency. The team faces $30 million in fines and the loss of 10 first-round picks and two swaps following a 36-page report detailing off-court income facilitation. While the league's findings regarding the Aspiration scandal and Steve Ballmer's texts have major long-term roster implications, the light consequences for Leonard offer little closure for former Spurs fans.
