Los Angeles Clippers owner Steve Ballmer said in an interview with ESPN that he welcomes the NBA’s investigation into an alleged circumvention of league salary cap rules, denying any involvement in a $28 million endorsement contract between Kawhi Leonard and a California-based sustainability services company.
Ballmer said he’d want the NBA to probe another club if it were accused of the same violation.
“Salary cap circumvention rules are important to the league, and I’d want the league to investigate,” Ballmer told ESPN on Thursday.
