Report: Kawhi Leonard’s $28M Aspiration Deal Came Directly From Co-Owner Joe Sanberg

Emails obtained by The Athletic show Sanberg personally provided stock to fund Leonard’s four-year, $28M endorsement deal in 2022, and $20M in equity. Executives admitted confusion, calling the contract full of “pretty big flags.” Despite richer terms than Aspiration gave DiCaprio or Downey Jr., Leonard hasn’t publicly endorsed the brand since signing.
