Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green called comments made by Houston Texans owner Bob McNair "Donald Sterling-esque," referencing the former Los Angeles Clippers owner who was banned for life by the NBA for racist remarks.
On Friday, Seth Wickersham and Don Van Natta Jr. of ESPN.com reported McNair said "We can't have the inmates running the prison," during a meeting about national anthem protests. He later released a statement of apology.
Green posted a response to the initial comments on Instagram:
"Wow! This sure does sound very Donald Sterling-esque.
