What happened: The La Clippers and Toronto Raptors still intend to complete the contract trade after the league’s investigation concluded.

Why it matters: The move follows sanctions that include five forfeited first-round picks and a one-year suspension for Clippers owner Steve Ballmer.

By the numbers: The forfeitures span the 2029 through 2033 NBA drafts; the Clippers also received a $30 million fine.

What to watch: Watch for the teams to set a formal announcement date.
