#BBB NEWS| NBA: Shelly Sterling Wins Lawsuit, V. Stiviano Must Give Back $2.8 Million Donald Sterling Spent on Her

The billionaire wife of former Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling got her revenge against a woman he showered with gifts and whose recording of his racially offensive rant cost him ownership of the team.

Shelly Sterling’s victory Tuesday in Los Angeles Superior Court will force V. Stiviano to surrender a $1.8 million duplex and return $800,000 lavished on her in cash handouts and several luxury cars, including a Ferrari, a Range Rover and a Bentley.

Judge Richard Fruin Jr. rejected arguments by Stiviano’s lawyer that the gifts were made when Donald and Shelly Sterling were separated and that Shelly Sterling couldn’t seek them from a third party.

Attorney Mac Nehoray said he and his client were disappointed and would appeal the ruling, which is tentative and will become final in 15 days if there are no objections.

Stiviano is the woman behind the racist recordings that got Donald Sterling banned from the NBA and forced to sell the Clippers.
