Multiple outlets report that Clippers star Kawhi Leonard had an additional undisclosed, multimillion-dollar sponsorship arrangement tied to the team’s arena video/scoreboard technology. According to Yahoo Sports and City News Toronto, the reported deal involves Daktronics, the company associated with the Clippers’ halo scoreboard at Intuit Dome. The reports say Leonard and the Clippers have also been under investigation related to a separate, similar sponsorship and payment arrangement involving Aspiration, a defunct sustainability company. The Japan Times reports that last September the NBA was looking into the Clippers for potential violations connected to an allegation that Aspiration was used to pay Leonard $28 million. City News Toronto frames the development as the latest branch of a broader salary-cap and sponsorship controversy, noting that it follows other alleged questionable arrangements. Across the reports, the central points are that a new alleged sponsorship with the scoreboard manufacturer has come to light and that it adds to an ongoing NBA investigation into prior allegations involving Aspiration.
