Clippers 'frustrated' and 'upset' with Kawhi Leonard because NBA let him off with just a $700,000 fine?

The Los Angeles Clippers are expressing frustration and disappointment over NBA's decision to impose only a $700,000 fine on Kawhi Leonard, according to sources cited by Jake Fischer. This comes after the Clippers are still working to finalize their new front office structure, following suspensions for owner Steve Ballmer and president Lawrence Frank.

Meanwhile, Leonard is reportedly in Miami, preparing for a minicamp with the Raptors, while Toronto awaits the completion of the trade that both teams agreed upon. Law Murray, a source, noted the NBA's lack of transparency regarding the deal's progress, emphasizing the thoroughness of their 35-page statement. Draymond Green, however, expressed satisfaction that the bulk of the penalty did not fall on Leonard, calling for a broader discussion on the league's salary cap and the restrictions on players' ability to earn money through team and league sponsorships.
