NBA disputes ESPN report on Clippers salary-cap investigation
ESPN reported that after an 11-month probe, the NBA could not prove Clippers owner Steve Ballmer funneled sponsorship money to Kawhi Leonard to bypass the salary cap (the league's team spending limit). NBA spokesperson Mike Bass called the article's findings riddled with "numerous and significant inaccuracies" but did not specify which parts. The investigation continues; the NBA and Clippers are reportedly negotiating a resolution.
