Donald Sterling lost control of the Clippers after he was declared mentally incapacitated, which made Shelly Sterling the complete controller of the family trust.
So was Donald being declared mentally incapacitated part of some evil ploy by Shelly to have the team sold to Steve Ballmer? Or were there legitimate reasons for it? It sounds like the latter was true.
The medical results of Sterling’s neurological exams were filed in court, and the results definitely indicate the old man has mental issues.
According to TMZ Sports, one neurologist said Sterling was unable to number a clock. The neurologist also said Sterling had trouble with reverse spelling and serial subtraction.
ESPN’s Ramona Shelburne says Sterling was unable to spell “clock” backwards.
Both neurologists who examined Sterling said the old man was unfit to run the Clippers.
