Chris Paul ‘horrified’, LeBron says ‘this isn’t it’ on NBA’s Sarver decision

Los Angeles Lakers superstar forward LeBron James and Phoenix Suns starting point guard Chris Paul each responded to the NBA’s one-year suspension of Suns owner Robert Sarver following a league investigation of the team for allegations of racism and misogyny Wednesday evening.

James, a four-time NBA champion, and Paul, who helped lead the Suns to the 2021 NBA Finals, agreed in separate Twitter posts the league did not issue a proper punishment for Sarver, who was also fined $10 million.

“I don’t need to explain why,” James said.
