OAKLAND, CA. (THECOUNT) — On Thursday, the NBA also announced it was banning Mark Stevens from attending any team activities through the end of next season’s playoffs.
Earlier an NBA spokesman said team representatives are held to the highest possible standard. “The conduct of Golden State Warriors investor Mark Stevens last night was beyond unacceptable and has no place in our league,” NBA spokesman Mike Bass said in a statement via CNN.
Stevens is a Silicon Valley venture capitalist who can now add to his resume – pushing NBA baller, Toronto Raptors Kyle Lowry – during a courtside tussle at Game 3 of the NBA Finals in Oakland Wednesday night.
Stevens, who according to Forbes is worth more than $2.4B, reportedly owns a minority stake in the Golden State Warriors.
Blogto reported Thursday morning that he was the man seen needlessly pushing Lowry (and allegedly hurling vulgarities) after the point guard tried to save a ball from going out of bounds during the fourth quarter of Wednesday night’s away game at the Oracle Arena.
The Toronto Raptors lead the series 2-1 over the Golden State Warriors.
