Dennis Robertson, uncle of Kawhi Leonard, did not request a no-show endorsement deal with the Los Angeles Lakers during their 2019 free agency discussions, sources tell Sam Amick of The Athletic. However, Robertson did ask for a specific amount of off-court endorsement compensation that could be promised in advance of Leonard signing with the Lakers.
According to a report from Bruce Arthur of The Toronto Star, Robertson asked the Toronto Raptors for at least $10 million per year in additional no-show sponsorship income.
The Los Angeles Clippers are under investigation following Pablo Torre’s report that Leonard had a $7 million per year no-show endorsement deal with team sponsor Aspiration.
