Report: Sterling's Friends Refusing to Reassure Him that He's Not Racist

Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling’s friends are reportedly refusing to reassure him that he is not a racist, especially because some are fearing that Sterling is recording the conversation. 

According to the New York Post, “Sterling has been phoning friends for support”:

“He’s calling everyone, saying: ‘Tell me I’m not a racist,’ ” a source said, noting that the friends are refusing, for fear that Sterling was recording them.

After TMZ released a recording in which Sterling tells a woman not to bring “black people” to Clippers games, the NBA fined him $2.5 million and banned him for life on Tuesday.
