Warriors minority owner Mark Stevens was banned from NBA activities for one year, and a forced sale could be next. But is $180 million really punishment? by kbadenhausen

With five straight appearances in the NBA Finals and a new $1.3 billion arena, Chase Center, set to open for the 2019-20 season, the value of the team has soared to $3.5 billion, according to. The 367% jump in value is the largest for any NBA team over that stretch.

The privately financed Chase Center will be the first major arena in San Francisco. It is part of a revitalization of the Mission Bay neighborhood, and the development will include restaurants, offices, public plazas and a public waterfront park. Before the doors open, the team hasin contractually obligated revenue for things like sponsorships, luxury suites and tickets.

There will be a lot of eyeballs on the opening, planned for September. The team does not need the distraction of Stevens’ ownership weighing on it. Sales of minority stakes in sports teams are not an exact science. They are often done at discounted valuations because the minority owner does not have any control over the direction of the franchise. But it is safe to say that Stevens will make a tidy profit if his fellow Warriors owners force a sale. Stevens owns an estimated 8% stake in the team, which could mean a profit of roughly $180 million, after factoring in team debt, on his original investment six years ago.

kbadenhausen YES Happened to the Panthers owner.

kbadenhausen Send him to Canada we want some of him

kbadenhausen Another white man that felt like he could do whatever he wanted to that black man. He would've never pushed a white player.

kbadenhausen it's not about the money it's about the clout. He was a part of arguably the best team of all time. Free Courtside seats and VIP treatment, at ARENA's all over the country. Social standing matters regardless of wealth.

kbadenhausen Say! Why the hell are you protecting Mark Stevens by not showing the photo of his shove of Kyle Lowry?

kbadenhausen $180M would only represent his stake. The punishment would be missing out on the opportunity to see his value increase as well as every other privilege that comes with being an owner.

kbadenhausen Well, they can’t just take away his investment, especially over this, so the punishment would be losing his ownership plus the fine of 500k he has to pay. The penalties for that push have been more than fair. Sterling made money off sale of clips too.

kbadenhausen Should have kicked Stevens ass

kbadenhausen Good penalty, if he does something similar again then maybe a more severe step, but not now. Everyone should get a warning.

kbadenhausen Forcing a sale because of a shove seems excessive. I understand trying to set a precedent of not touching players. It will only escalate.

kbadenhausen Why is every picture shown to make Lowry look like an aggressor and the banned investor, who is actually at fault, as someone being attacked?
