Kawhi Trade Talks Hit Snags | NBA News

Dallas Mavericks are rumored to be exploring a trade for Kawhi Leonard with the LA Clippers, tossing out P.J. Washington and draft picks—but the deal’s financial hurdles are steep. Complicating matters: an ongoing NBA probe into the Clippers and Kawhi over a now-bankrupt endorsement deal with Aspiration, where Kawhi allegedly never received millions and the co-founder got a prison sentence. Plus, Kawhi’s contract is expiring and he’s reportedly only willing to sign an extension with the Toronto Raptors, making him a tough sell for any team—even if Dallas had the pieces. Trade talks? Probably on hold until the league clears the air and Kawhi’s future becomes clearer. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
