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.

🚨 Max Verstappen et McLaren seraient "dans les toutes dernières étapes de longues négociations" quant à un possible transfert du Néerlandais, à la place d'Oscar Piastri, pour 2027 affirme @Planet_F1 ! 🤯
Le quadruple champion du monde "serait sur le point de prendre une décision" sur son avenir chez Red Bull 👀
En juin dernier, Red Bull aurait tenté de racheter la clause de sortie de Max Verstappen afin de la supprimer de son contrat. Le pilote néerlandais aurait toutefois refusé cette proposition. Une décision qui aurait irrité les relations entre Red Bull et Max Verstappen.
Une situation qui se serait tellement détériorée au point que Mark Mateschitz souhaiterait désormais mettre un terme à la collaboration. Une position que ne serait pas partagée par le PDG de Red Bull, Oliver Mintzlaff, qui souhaiterait conserver Verstappen au sein de l'équipe jusqu'en 2030.
Red Bull estime avoir suffisamment investi sur Max Verstappen pour mériter un engagement plus fort de sa part. Un transfert chez Mercedes semble désormais écarté ❌
Certaines sources affirment également que Red Bull s'est préparée à faire une annonce concernant ses pilotes dès cette semaine, laissant entendre qu'une décision de Verstappen aurait déjà été prise ⏳
