NBA Commissioner Adam Silver has banned Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling for life from any association with the Clippers or the NBA, after audio leaked of Sterling and his girlfriend V. Stiviano arguing over Stiviano having posted photos of African-Americans—one in particular being NBA legend Magic Johnson—on Instagram and reprimanding her for bringing African-Americans to Clippers game.

Commissioner Silver fined Sterling $2.5 million, which will be donated to organizations dedicated to anti-discrimination and tolerance efforts that will be jointly selected by the NBA and the players, and will urge the board of Governors to force Sterling to sell the team. This is the story that is sweeping the nation and is casting a dark cloud over the NBA Playoffs. XXL spoke to two L.A. MCs, Glasses Malone and Murs, to get their take on the Sterling controversy and what happens next. —Emmanuel C.M.
