Shes getting sued for apparent blackmail. But lbsh. It was a sugar daddy situation. Daddy probably wanted to stop providing. There is no way this is going anywhere near a court for a lawsuit. The NBA on the other hand has a huge upper hand. I'd have to read more into the structure but its 30 independent franchises, the represent the league. If he's hurting business they can remove him. I can be wrong here but seems that the board would have the power. Similar to you owning a franchised gas station and only letting one race get gas. They could take the rights you have to bear that franchise away. Can't find much info on it, but the NBA has options. Excomunicate until he sells, etc.
