Steve Ballmer Seeks Dismissal of Fraud Suit Alleging Payments to Kawhi Leonard

Ballmer’s attorneys asked a judge to dismiss an investor lawsuit alleging he funneled money to Leonard through a defunct green banking company. The filing calls the claims “sensational” and “patently false” and says Ballmer lost his investment. The Clippers deny any salary-cap circumvention and say they’re cooperating with the NBA’s investigation. A hearing is set for March 9, 2026.
