According to reports, Phoenix Suns owner Robert Sarver was hit with a massive penalty following an investigation into alleged workplace misconduct. Robert Sarver was banned from the basketball league for one season and is mandated to pay a $10 million fine. The NBA’s investigation included interviewing 320 current and past Suns employees. Following the investigation, it was revealed that Sarver used the ‘N-word’ at least five times “when recounting the statement of others.” NBA commissioner Adam Silver said in a statement:
“The statements and conduct described in the findings of the independent investigation are troubling and disappointing.”
Adam Silver continued:
“We believe the outcome is the right one, taking into account all the facts, circumstances and context brought to light by the comprehensive investigation of this 18-year period and our commitment to upholding proper standards in NBA workplaces.”
Adam Silver added:
“I am hopeful that the NBA community will use this opportunity to reflect on what this great game means to people everywhere and the values of equality, respect and inclusion that it strives to represent. Regardless of position, power or intent, we all need to recognize the corrosive and hurtful impact of racially insensitive and demeaning language and behavior.”
Silver shared:
“On behalf of the entire NBA, I apologize to all of those impacted by the misconduct outlined in the investigators’ report. We must do better.”
