The NBA named Dick Parsons, former Citigroup chairman and former Time CEO, as interim CEO of the Los Angeles Clippers on Friday, as first reported by David Aldridge of NBA.com.
The league announced last week its plan to appoint a CEO to supervise the team's operations in the wake of Donald Sterling's lifetime ban by NBA commissioner Adam Silver.
It was announced Tuesday that Clippers president Andy Roeser was placed on indefinite leave of absence to sever immediate ties to Sterling and clear the way for the new CEO.
