Steve Ballmer Sued by Aspiration Investors | College Hoops Faces Flagg-less Season, Betting Questions

Steve Ballmer was added to a 133-page lawsuit that claims Ballmer used the company to pay Kawhi Leonard and circumvent the NBA’s salary cap. Front Office Sports’s Colin Salao explains what’s next. Meanwhile, reporter Margaret Fleming takes us inside another NBA financial scandal in which a former Atlanta Hawks employee embezzled $3.8 million of the team’s money for personal use, including the purchase of a Porsche.

Plus, the college basketball season has begun, but faces an uphill battle without a clear-cut “face of the season” like Cooper Flagg was last year, says FOS writer David Rumsey. Meanwhile, gambling concerns loom in the background. Amanda Christovich has the latest there.

Also, Ja Morant and the Grizzlies could be headed for divorce, the Stars are set to play a Stadium Series game in AT&T Stadium, and we look for answers about Michael Jordan’s role with NBC.
