Steve Ballmer, owner of the Los Angeles Clippers, claims he was misled by the bankrupt green firm Aspiration regarding carbon credit purchases linked to payments for star player Kawhi Leonard. In response to journalist Pablo Torre's findings, the Clippers revealed they prepaid nearly $21 million for carbon offsets in 2022, raising questions about potential salary cap violations. While the team emphasizes its commitment to sustainability with the Intuit Dome, the ongoing NBA investigation into the matter casts a shadow over Ballmer's assertions of being defrauded.
