TMZ: Sterling To Get Indefinite Suspension And Huge Fine

TMZ reports that the decision on what to do with Donald Sterling involves an indefinite suspension and a $5 million fine.

NBA Commissioner Adam Silver has tentatively decided to suspend Clippers owner Donald Sterling INDEFINITELY and impose a multi-million-dollar fine — but Sterling will NOT be forced to sell the team — sources familiar with the situation tell TMZ Sports.

We’re told the suspension does NOT include members of Sterling’s immediate family, but the NBA will have approval rights on who is running the team.

We’re told Commissioner Adam Silver had a forensic expert review the recording and found no evidence it was altered and confirmed Sterling’s voice.

And we’re told … an NBA investigator spoke with Sterling by phone after we posted the recording and the Clippers owner agreed to sit down for a follow-up interview but then changed his mind and backed out.

And we’re told V. Stiviano told NBA reps the same thing we’ve reported … that she had Sterling’s consent before she recorded him.
