https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/346 ... -work-doneAfter 18 years as Phoenix Suns owner, Robert Sarver left many across the NBA with a story.
Some are bizarre, like when he put a herd of goats in his general manager's office. Some are repugnant, such as his racially insensitive language and treatment of employees detailed by an NBA investigation that concluded last week. Some are bewildering, like when fellow NBA owners watched him clip his nails on a Zoom call during a mid-pandemic board meeting, sources said, with the debris falling on his dark shirt.
Said one staffer who participated in the investigation: "I'm relieved, I'm beyond happy, I'm empowered and I'm motivated to continue to ensure that all of the men in that organization still in power who upheld this culture are rooted out."
"ESPN says that almost 30 sponsors – who provided nearly $11 million in revenue – would have needed additional convincing to prevent a mass exodus of financial support for the team.
Verizon Wireless and Footprint, two companies who have name stakes on the Suns home arena and practice facilities, were considering ending endorsement deals with the team following in the footsteps of jersey patch partner, PayPal."
"It was also revealed that despite Sarver’s anger toward the one-year ban issued by Silver, the two had been speaking often.
'Silver had been speaking directly to Sarver frequently since issuing the yearlong suspension, sources said, encouraging him to act in the best interest of his franchises and remove himself from the equation by selling both teams.'"
Shelburne believes the Suns could be sold for up to $4 billion.
