Sarver was recently suspended for one year and fined $10 million by the organization for racist and sexist remarks. Tremaglio stated on ESPN’s NBA Today that she was speaking on behalf of NBA players when she stated that they were ‘definitely pushing for a lifetime ban.
Tremaglio had issued a statement calling Sarver‘s purported conduct “awful” and adding he should never again have an NBA managerial role. In an interview with ESPN’s “NBA Today” on Friday, she elaborated on those points: “We are absolutely calling for [a lifetime ban]. We do not want him to be in a position where he is managing or engaging with individuals who are engaging with our players or our players themselves. We are absolutely clear from the findings that are in the report that we do not want him to be in that position.”

She also said “All issues that led to a toxic work environment for well over a decade. I have made my position known to Adam Silver regarding my thoughts on the extent of the punishment, and strongly believe that Mr. Sarver should never hold a managerial position within our league again.
