“Former Clippers executive Elgin Baylor, who once sued Donald Sterling alleging discriminatory treatment, believes NBA commissioner Adam Silver did the right thing by imposing a lifetime ban on the disgraced Clippers owner, who was caught on tape making a series of racist remarks.
“Justice has been served,” Baylor said in an interview with CNN. “Look at it that way. They know what Donald is like. The things I said before about Donald are absolutely true.”
Baylor, 79, was an 11-time All-Star during his Hall of Fame career with the Lakers. After retiring in 1972, Baylor briefly pursued a career in coaching. In 1986, he was hired by the Clippers as GM and he remained in that position until 2008. The following year, Baylor sued Sterling for wrongful termination and initially accused Sterling of age and racial discrimination.”* The Young Turks hosts Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian break it down.
