According to the Associated Press, Sterling, who is suing the NBA for $1 billion after Sterling was heard making racist remarks to alleged mistress V. Stiviano, has reportedly sought the assistance of four private investigation firms to look into the past of 29 NBA owners and the former and current commissioners.
