Wish it were more substantive but imagine it has to go through all the owners and there are probably a few who are reluctant to be next.

Yeah I think that is about as harsh as owners were willing to be to one of their own.

10M is not even 10%. They won't feel that penalty. But others will be more careful, I agree.
Looks like Pay Pal says they are going to pull their jersey sponsorship if Sarver is not gone post-suspension.

Sure except when you already have more money than you can waste in 10 life times the profit earned is poor recompense for being bared from owning something that only a select few are allowed to own.

So minority owner calls for him to sell. Sarver has the option to sell the all the shares, even current minority owners to a new owner. The new owner has the option if they want to retain any current minority owners.
Just waiting for him to sell to a Seattle group and they move the team. And before you say the league can stop him, yes they can. But then he can turn around and say I tried to sell, but couldn't to the highest bidder and change my mind. He's not being forced to sell.

Bezos is apparently one of the early interested parties for the sale so it’s not totally out of the question. That said, I don’t know if the NBA wants to move a team that just went to the Finals a season ago.
"On the roster" doing some real heavy lifting thee.
Ironically, if he'd actually been good enough to play, he'd probably "merely" be a millionaire right now.

So I wonder who's extra 20% he's getting? The ones who called Sarver out, forced to sell?
