Robert Sarver to sell Phoenix Suns and Mercury after N-word scandal

Robert Sarver will be selling both the Phoenix Suns and the Phoenix Mercury after an NBA investigation revealed that he used the n-word multiple times during his tenure as an owner in the leagues.

The NBA investigation also revealed that Sarver made inappropriate comments toward women, and didn’t treat his employees fairly or equally.

Commissioner Adam Silver who fined him $10 million and suspended him one year over the offence, had insisted the punishment was strong enough.

Sarver however announced on Wednesday morning September 21, that he is “beginning the process of seeking buyers for the Suns and the Mercury”, just after fans and multiple star players including LeBron James, Chris Paul and Draymond Green called for more severe sanctions.
