Clippers Owner Donald Sterling Battling Prostate Cancer By Cindy Boren May 2, 2014 at 7:33 am Washington Post http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/early-lead/wp/2014/05/02/ clippers-owner-donald-sterling-battling-prostate-cancer/ . A shorter URL for the above link: . http://tinyurl.com/klok94x . .Donald Sterling, the Los Angeles Clippers owner who was banned from the NBA for life Tuesday, is battling prostate cancer.
.In addition to the lifetime ban, Sterling was fined $2.5 million and NBA Commissioner Adam Silver urged the league's other owners to force the sale of the Clippers because of racist remarks by Sterling that became public last weekend. The New York Post first reported that Sterling, 80, has the disease and sources confirmed it to ESPN.
.Blake Griffin said after the Clippers' 100-99 loss to Golden State in Game 6 of their NBA playoff series that he was unaware of Sterling's illness. "If that is true, my thoughts and prayers are with him," Griffin said (via ESPN). "Nobody deserves to go through something like that."
.On Thursday, the NBA's advisory and finance committee, consisting of 10 men with ownership stakes in teams, met for the first time since Silver announced Sterling's punishment and "unanimously agreed to move forward as expeditiously as possible" on beginning the process of removing Sterling as one of the league's 30 owners. The committee will meet again next week.
