Last night after the Toronto Raptors were victorious in Game 3 of the NBA Finals Kyle Lowry spoke out about a rude Golden State Warriors fan using vulgar language and grabbing him.
Well, the Warriors fan turned out to be the Warriors investor Mark Stevens and get this, the team has announced that Stevens would be banned from the rest of the NBA Finals and that they will be taking harsher measures against him. Read on…

CelebNSports247.com broke the news minutes after it all went down and now we are happy to hear the Golden State Warriors have joined forces to ban Stevens for a full year and have also fined him $500K.
Take that you vulgar mouthed SOB! That is what you get Mark Stevens for being nasty to Toronto Raptors guard Kyle Lowry!
Maybe you can learn some F’n respect for the NBA players because your money doesn’t give the right to be a complete @ss to anyone who is in contact with you.
The sad part is that Stevens is still allowed to be a part-owner of the club but he won’t be able to attend games and team activities.
The good news is the white-haired old @ss got himself 86’d from the team he supports. Ha Ha Ha!

Lowry was vocal about his displeasure and was the first person to call for Stevens to be banned, saying:
The fans have a place; we love our fans. But fans like that shouldn’t be allowed to be in there, because it’s not right. I can’t do nothing to protect myself. But the league does a good job, and hopefully they ban him from all NBA games forever.
“He reached over and put his hands on me for no reason then he said a couple vulgar words to me … hopefully they ban him from all NBA games ever.”

The good thing is that the league is taking the situation seriously and won’t stand for any physical interactions between the fans and the players.
