Details of the settlement weren’t immediately available.

Sterling sued the NBA in May 2014, the day after his wife Shelly Sterling agreed to sell the Clippers to Ballmer following the exposure of inflammatory comments Donald Sterling had made about African Americans.

The lawsuit alleged a wide-ranging conspiracy to remove Sterling after 33 years as owner of the Clippers and sought more than $1 billion in damages. The list of defendants eventually grew to include NBA Commissioner Adam Silver, former Commissioner David Stern, Shelly Sterling and two doctors who found Donald Sterling mentally incapable of continuing as a member of the family trust that owned the Clippers.

Pierce O’Donnell, Shelly Sterling’s attorney, expressed relief the saga is finished.

“Donald’s quixotic legal challenge to the record-shattering $2-billion sale was doomed from the very outset,” O’Donnell wrote in an email.

NBA spokesman Mike Bass said: "We are pleased that Mr. Sterling has dropped his lawsuit and that this matter is now over."

Always thought it was funny that he felt the need to sue these guys after pocketing $2 billion. Probably one of the worst owners in the history of sports.
