The SEC gets involved with Kawhi and Daktronics dealings and suddenly the NBA has clarity on the case. Ha!

[Shams Charania @ShamsCharania]

Per NBA: The Clippers shall forfeit five first-round draft picks, one in each of the 2029, 2030, 2031, 2032, and 2033 NBA Drafts.

Clippers owner Steve Ballmer is suspended from all league and team activities for one year for knowingly seeking to help Mr. Leonard obtain off-court income opportunities, for approving a business deal that he knew was a precondition for Aspiration to enter into an endorsement agreement with Mr. Leonard, and for his failure to create conditions under which his organization abided by the NBA’s circumvention rules.

Clippers President of Business Operations Gillian Zucker is suspended without pay for one year for being primarily and directly culpable for the impermissible endorsement arrangements and for providing false and misleading statements to investigators.

Clippers President of Basketball Operations Lawrence Frank is suspended without pay for six months for his involvement with the impermissible endorsement arrangements and for approving impermissible expenses incurred by Mr. Leonard and his family.

The Clippers organization and personnel are subject to a compliance and monitoring program overseen by the league office for a period of five years.

Dennis Smith Jr. will be signing with the Heat, an NBA source confirms to the Sun Sentinel, but Smith will not be with Heat for start of training camp. Smith closed last season with the Heat's G League affiliate, the Sioux Falls Skyforce, which is likely where this is headed.

[Ira Winderman @IraHeatBeat]

Still on the Jazz roster. Heat only have his G League rights.

THE GRAY AREA

[Ira Winderman @IraHeatBeat]

Dan Bisaccio, who coached the Heat's G League team the past two seasons, is now back with the Heat, with the team's former video coordinator listed as assistant coach/player development coordinator.

CNN is about to travel the same dark path of WaPo and CBS News. They will say it's not true. They will ask you to ignore what you see and disbelieve what you hear.

Support independent media. You can start with Democracy Docket but there are many others. https://t.co/XNx8W5tRQA

[Tim Reynolds @ByTimReynolds]

Doc Rivers often said voter fatigue affected Michael Jordan and Giannis Antetokounmpo (he might have said LeBron too, can't remember) in NBA MVP voting.

Let's hope the same issue doesn't affect A'ja Wilson.

Debate 1st team, DPOY and COY all you want, but the WNBA MVP is easy.

[Marc E. Elias @marceelias]

So, it turns out that now CNN and CBS News are under the control of the Ellison family, they are considering asking Elon Musk to join them.

We need independent, pro-democracy media to grow. If you agree, please subscribe to Democracy Docket now. https://t.co/7W0yoPHUfA

Stephanie White said Aliyah Boston's injury was a flare up of the same lower leg injury that bothered her earlier in the season.
No update on Ty Harris.

The injunction order is also very broad. Not only must the NCAA allow all 100+ players to play but:

- The NCAA can't stop athletes who didn't enter the portal from playing for a new school
- The NCAA can't apply any professionalism rules
- The NCAA must open a new portal window

[Ira Winderman @IraHeatBeat]

Heat have made a successful waiver claim, adding guard Bez Mbeng to a training-camp roster that now stands at 19, two below the NBA offseason maximum. Mbeng was waived Sunday by the Hornets. He played for the Heat's G League affiliate last season, the Sioux Falls Skyforce.

[Miami HEAT @MiamiHEAT]

OFFICIAL: The Miami HEAT have claimed guard Bez Mbeng off waivers. More details 👉 https://t.co/qSlT94NaDm

@MizzouWBB Coach Harper is lifting Mizzou Wbb at every angle. Every hire, every step is thoughtful and impressive. Can't wait to see this group put it all together on the floor.
