BREAKING: LeBron James is signing with the Philadelphia 76ers on a two-year, $8 million deal with a player option, Klutch Sports Group and Klutch CEO and Game Over show host Rich Paul tells ESPN.
@Travonne They gotta sue man lol. They're taking the wrath of this for no reason. I will go my entire life without encountering someone that got a tummy ache from Taco Bell. I might need to pick up a couple of chalupas to show support.
@petamocto@SleeperWizards@JoshuaBRobbins Safe to say Tre is shut down, the Wizards often don't play their rookies after game two anyways, let alone second year players. Would expect AJ (better than DP) to sit the third game as is often the case for Wizards, who don't chase summer league wins
No. 1 pick AJ Dybantsa and No. 2 pick Darryn Peterson get mic’d up for their NBA Summer League debuts in Las Vegas!
Wizards/Jazz is coming up NEXT on ESPN 🍿
Developing: The Los Angeles Clippers-Toronto Raptors trade centered on Kawhi Leonard will not be complete until the NBA investigation into the Clippers is over. Statement from the Clippers to ESPN:
For the past 10 months, our organization has fully cooperated with an NBA investigation, participating in dozens of interviews, providing tens of thousands of documents, and facilitating access to our staff. While the process has been challenging, we have remained committed to transparency.
On June 30, we reached an agreement in principle to trade Kawhi Leonard to the Toronto Raptors. We have since been informed that the trade can only be finalized if the Raptors' ownership group assumes the risk of penalties related to Kawhi’s contract that could theoretically result from the ongoing investigation. The investigation is ongoing, and we expect the trade to be finalized following its conclusion.
At the heart of this investigation are Joe Sanberg and Aspiration. We did not funnel money to Kawhi Leonard through Aspiration. Like many sophisticated investors, financial institutions, and business partners, we were victims of a fraud initiated by Sanberg, who has been convicted and sentenced to 14 years in prison.
We recognize the uncertainty this has created and the impact it has had on our team, our fans, the Raptors organization, their fans, and the players whose futures remain affected while this process continues.
We remain confident that, when the facts are evaluated fairly and thoroughly, the NBA will confirm exactly what we have said from the beginning: We have not done what we are accused of doing.
