The National Basketball Association has widened its ongoing inquiry into Kawhi Leonard, adding two previously unexamined financial arrangements to the case, according to information linked to the league’s review.
Leonard, currently with the Los Angeles Clippers, has been under investigation for potential violations of league rules. The latest move brings the total number of questioned agreements to at least two more than originally disclosed, intensifying scrutiny on the organization’s dealings with the All-Star forward.
League officials did not release details of the additional arrangements but confirmed that the expanded probe has slowed discussions about a possible trade that would send Leonard back to the Toronto Raptors. No timetable for a resolution has been announced.
Representatives for Leonard, the Clippers and the Raptors declined to comment while the league review remains active.
