Stephen A. Smith, NBA analyst, has demanded that Kawhi Leonard be banned from the league for a year due to alleged salary cap circumvention deals. Leonard, currently with the Los Angeles Clippers, is under investigation by the NBA for potential illegal sponsorship deals with Aspiration and Daktronics. Smith believes that if the allegations are true, Leonard should face severe consequences. The Clippers and Leonard are already under investigation for the Aspiration controversy, and a second story about another shady deal has emerged. Smith's demands come amidst his long-standing criticism of Leonard's actions and influence on teams.
