NBA Bans Donald Sterling for Life, Calls for Sale of Team

Hosted by

NBA Commissioner Adam Silver today banned LA Clippers owner Donald Sterling for life in response to racist comments he made in a recorded conversation. Guest host Barbara Bogaev considers how LA's newest darling team will fare, with a banned owner balking at selling the franchise. Will sponsors return anytime soon? How tarnished are the league and the Clipper's name? Also, the battle for the heart and soul of the GOP in California. Banker Neel Kashkari now has some political heavyweights backing him but Assemblyman Tim Donnelly is crushing him in early polls.
