Kawhi Leonard investigation draws SEC interest in Daktronics
As the NBA world awaits the findings of the investigation into Kawhi Leonard and the Los Angeles Clippers, another wrinkle may delay the process.
The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and NBA have reached out to scoreboard manufacturer Daktronics to inquire about the company's dealings with Kawhi Leonard, according to Howard Atkins, Daktronics' acting chief financial officer. The SEC and NBA are investigating Leonard and the Los Angeles Clippers in connection with alleged salary cap circumvention.
Atkins stated that the company is cooperating with the investigation, but declined to provide further comment to protect the integrity of the process. This development may potentially delay the announcement of the NBA's investigation findings, as training camps are set to commence at the end of the month.
