According to the filed civil lawsuit, back in September 2021, Ankr PBC gave the loan to Williamson and his family as they were looking to build a marketing relationship with the NBA star and onboard him as a spokesperson.
Anderson was allegedly involved in representing Williamson and requested $150,000 upfront to discuss the possibility of the California-based tech company forming a partnership with Williamson.
In addition, the filing claims Anderson said the loan was a pressing matter because “his family would suffer financial hardship, and Williamson would not enter into a business relationship with Ankr.”
