Uncle Dennis Apparently Asked Teams For Guaranteed Sponsorship Money In Kawhi Deal

On July 5, the NBA world was in shock, after a move no-one expected.

The Los Angeles Clippers signed Kawhi Leonard and traded for Paul George in a move that shook the NBA landscape.

One of the reasons Kawhi Leonard didn’t re-sign with the Toronto Raptors, or sign with the Lakers, is the same reason why he demanded a trade from the Spurs last year – Uncle Dennis.

“This is me putting on my reporter’s hat here. People in NBA circles are talking about this right now. Allegedly, the uncle, Uncle Dennis, was asking for a lot of stuff from the other teams. Houses, planes, sponsorship, guaranteed sponsorship money, just as an example. They’re throwing this stuff out there.

I have no idea whether this is true or not. I’m not trying to cast any aspersions on Uncle Dennis. But people in NBA circles are talking about this as we speak.”
