Clippers Lose Endorsement Deals Over Sterling Controversy

Companies like Kia, State Farm, Red Bull, Virgin America and CarMax announced they are cutting ties with the Clippers amid controversy over racist comments team owner Donald Sterling allegedly made. CarMax called the comments “completely unacceptable.”
