Former Aspiration CEO denied that the approval agreement of Kawhi Leonard with the company was a “no -show” contract.
Andrei Cherny, who resigned from his role in the company in 2022, wrote on x On Friday, the “statement that the contract with Kawhi Leonard is a ‘no show’ contract incorrect.”
“The contract contained three pages with extensive obligations that Leonard had to perform,” Cherny continued. “And the contract clearly said that if Leonard did not meet those obligations, aspiration could terminate the contract.
“The ‘beliefs’ provision is not unusual in approval of celebrities and only means that we cannot do anything as a vegetarian food that eating meat as a way to force them to break the contract. It does not mean that you cannot have a’ belief ‘not to talk to a camera.’ ‘
Tsjerny added that he does not remember “conversations about the NBA salary limit” before signing the approval agreement with Leonard and that there were “countless internal conversations about the various things that was planning to do with Leonard as soon as the 2022-23 season started” before he left.
“I can’t talk to what was done or not done after I left – or why,” he wrote.
Cherny speaks less than two weeks after Pablo Torre for the first time about the alleged four-year-old, $ 28 million no-show approval Deal that Leonard received from Aspiration, an owner of a company Clippers Steve Ballmer invested.
Torre, for his part, responded quickly to Tsjerny to X.
“Hello Andrei – Your tweet is of course incorrect. @pablofindout asked an interview on the camera with you via LinkedIn. We then emailed a series of detailed questions. (You told me that they get lost in your spam filter.) Also: this is you, right? “Torre wrote, and added a screenshot of an article that said Cherny was looked at by the Ministry of Justice and the researchers of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission in the aspiration trail during his failed American conference campaign in the US Congressional in Arizona.
“Pablo is right about this,” replied Cherny. “With ‘last 10 days’ I meant since his podcast. I originally wrote it that way, but it was too many characters. What his screenshot was, it was a bad report (as I said then) and the Doj decorations make clear what happened and who the fraud is.”
Co-founder of Aspiratie Joe Sanberg was arrested earlier this year and later argued guilty of cheating investors.
Last week Ballmer consciously denied bypassing the salary limit during an interview with ESPN.
“Every opposite statement is demonstrably incorrect: the team ended his relationship with Aspiration years ago, during the 2022-23 season, when aspiration failed his obligations,” the clippers said in a statement. “Neither the clippers nor Mr Ballmer were aware of any incorrect activity by Aspiration or her co-founder until after the government had launched its research. The team and Mr. Ballmer are ready to help law enforcement in any way they can.”
The NBA has since opened an investigation into the allegations, in which the Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen and Katz law firm, the same law firm is hired that the competition has been hired to investigate former Clippers owner Donald Sterling and former Sun’s owner Robert Sarver.
