Based on the ESPN 30 for 30 podcast, "The Sterling Affairs," FX's upcoming limited series chronicles the infamous scandal involving Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling, who was caught on tape making racist remarks, which led to his disgraceful downfall.
The Context Behind FX's Clipped Series Doc Rivers, Donald Sterling & More While HBO's Winning Time chronicled the rise of the Los Angeles Lakers dynasty during the early 1980s, FX's Clipped tells the scandalous story of LA's other basketball team, the Clippers, who have commonly been called cursed since they have never won an NBA championship.
Related Winning Time Foreshadows Donald Sterling’s NBA Controversy Winning Time episode 1 foreshadows one of the NBA's biggest scandals by introducing future Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling. Rivers was hired to coach a talented roster that included Chris Paul, Blake Griffin, and DeAndre Jordan – the trio responsible for the Lob City era due to their propensity for highlight-worthy alley-oops.
Sterling's racist remarks were met with widespread condemnation and the NBA swiftly took action. In 2014, Sterling was banned from the NBA for life, fined $2.5 million, and forced to sell the team to former Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer for $2 billion. Along with going behind the scenes of this scandal, Clipped should explore how the controversy surrounding Sterling brought issues of racism and discrimination in professional sports to the forefront of public discussion.
