Twitter Reacts to Conclusion of Robert Sarver Investigation

On Tuesday, Phoenix Suns owner Robert Sarver was suspended for one year from both the Suns and Phoenix Mercury's operations, while also being fined $10 million.

The punishment comes after an ESPN story launched last November dealing with allegations of racism and sexism in the work place. In early June, a former Suns employee came forward to further the narrative.

Over 300 people were interviewed during a process many never saw ending, as NBA commissioner Adam Silver said back in June the investigation was "nearly complete".

Three months later, the investigation has finally come to a stop after over 80,000 documents were reportedly reviewed.

A one year suspension and $10 million fine doesn't seem like enough, in the opinion of social media.

The last sentence on page 1 essentially says “we didn’t find that Robert Sarver was intentionally racist or sexist he might just be dumb”

Robert Sarver is an embarrassment to the NBA and the city of Phoenix and should not own an NBA team.

Donald Sterling didn’t use a single slur on that tape. Robert Sarver did. On top of an investigation finding sexist and other inappropriate comments—none of which we have details about

idk how you justify allowing him to keep the team

Robert Sarver is everything you don’t want in an owner. This was a golden opportunity for the NBA to rid themselves of this cancer for good.

Adam Silver is a coward.
