Today the NBA commissioner Adam Silver announced that Donald Sterling, owner of the Los Angeles Clippers, will be banned from the NBA for a lifetime and has to pay a 2.5 million dollar fine! Talk about cashing out! He will not be able to attend ANY NBA games and he will not be able to step foot on any LA Clippers facilities. This includes, practices, games, locker rooms, fundraisers and functions.

Im glad that the NBA commissioner to a stand and let him know that racism will not be accepted! Now we as African Americans need to start doing better! Educating ourselves more, respecting ourselves more, and doing what is right!
I’m glad to hear it! I just still can’t grasp the concept of someone hating someone else strictly off their skin color. I’m glad this time what was right won over money.
Very proud to be an NBA fan! I am glad they stepped up and did something about this. It is also great that they 2.5 million fine will go to an organization that promotes equality and maybe help stop discrimination. Even bigger props to Chris Paul and his team. Chris Paul played a major role is Pres. of the NBAPA in making sure this matter was handled properly and professionally and the LA Clippers team as a whole made a big statement when the wore their jerseys inside out so the LA Clippers logo could not be seen. I hope that Sterling learns his lesson and gets some help to open his mind about other cultures…
Great story!! That’s not acceptable in the league and one day I hope it’s not acceptable in society..
