## Resource

The NBA just dropped a brutal punishment on the LA Clippers—five forfeited first-round picks and a $30 million fine—for violating salary cap rules involving Kawhi Leonard. It’s a wake-up call for franchises that underestimate the importance of front-office compliance. Meanwhile, Atlanta Hawks’ Onsi Saleh proves why having a deep, rule-savvy executive matters: his blend of basketball strategy and legal expertise lets Atlanta build smartly now without sacrificing future flexibility. From his time with Golden State to his current role in Atlanta, Saleh navigates complex league regulations like a pro, turning compliance into competitive advantage.
