Suns Robert Sarver issues statement supporting NBA action against Donald Sterling

Statement from Suns Managing Partner Robert Sarver.

USA TODAY Sports

"I applaud the actions taken today by Commissioner Silver in response to the disturbing comments made by Donald Sterling. Commissioner Silver's decision upholds the principles of diversity, tolerance and respect for all people that the NBA and Phoenix Suns represent. The Commissioner has my full support."

And I applaud Robert for his stand. Honestly, I never had any doubt where Mr. Sarver stood on this issue. You can question some of his basketball decisions over the years, but he's always been a decent person and from everything I know, a good human being.
