Two different NBA owners have been toppled in the past four weeks because of racially radioactive comments they’ve made in recent years.
But that’s just the beginning, according to Bobby Samini, an attorney for former Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling.
“We engaged private investigators. It’s no secret to anybody,” Samini told USA TODAY Sports. “I would never discuss what their findings were or anything of that nature. It wouldn’t be appropriate, but what I can tell you is that my sense is that this is just the beginning. There’s not a single owner in the league who doesn’t have an e-mail, a conversation, a conference call comment, that by this standard that’s been established by (NBA Commissioner) Adam Silver, that wouldn’t completely taint them.”
