Celtics guard Jerry Bayless is one of the first NBA athletes to publicly condemn Clippers owner Donald Sterling for his racist remarks.
I also wouldn’t put on that jersey with Sterling still as the owner.

So he doesn’t want his African American/Mexican gf associating with African Americans.

Even though his NBA franchise is a revolving door of players who are predominately African American who make him richer?

The NBA just issued a statement:
We are in the process of conducting a full investigation into the audio recording obtained by TMZ. The remarks heard on the recording are disturbing and offensive, but at this time we have no further information.
According to LA Daily News reporter Vincent Bonsignore, the Clippers players are pissed off.
ESPN, the league’s primary broadcast partner, is ignoring the TMZ report. Disgraceful.
