If Donald Sterling thought his racist rants would be swept under the rug with yesterday’s news, he’s sadly mistaken.
The NBA charged Sterling with damaging the league’s reputation after tapes of him bashing the black community were leaked. Sterling will appear at a hearing on June 3, where they will decide his fate in the NBA. Glen Taylor, Minnesota Timberwolves owner, will chair the meeting and the rest of the owners in the league will vote whether they will uphold the charge or not.
This is the second round of punishment for Sterling (besides being shunned by fans, critics and every black person in America). He was fined $2.5 million and banned from the NBA for life.
