Summary
The Clippers said they did not funnel money to Kawhi Leonard through Aspiration, directly rejecting allegations at the center of an ongoing NBA investigation.
Joe Sanberg and Aspiration are at the heart of the case, the team said, arguing it was defrauded by Sanberg, who has been convicted and sentenced to 14 years in prison.
The franchise said the probe has created uncertainty and affected the team, its fans, the Raptors organization and players whose futures remain unresolved.
The Clippers said they remain confident the NBA will ultimately confirm they did not commit the conduct alleged as the investigation continues.
