You can avoid signing Klutch clients but you can't stop them from switching once they're on the team.

Would it be possible to write language into the contract that if they sign with Klutch after signing their deal, a certain amount of money is void? Like an anti signing bonus?

Write language into the contract that the player cannot request a trade to Miami, NY, Brooklyn, LAL, LAC. Sort of like a no-trade clause but for the team's benefit.

Structure contracts so that if a player requests a trade, their contract is no longer guaranteed. They can be cut outright and go to their preferred destination but their team is not on the hook for their salary and the Lakers or whoever has to figure out a way to fit the new salary in.

none of that is possible, the standard player contract is a collectively bargained terms and conditions. only variables are years/money/options
