(TMZ)
Old racist, Donald Sterling has finally given up on the L.A Clippers to his estranged wife Shelly Sterling after series of denials and threats of suing the NBA.
Sterling is officially no longer the controlling owner of the Los Angeles Clippers and there are reports that Shelly is now secretly negotiating with the NBA to sell the team as she deems fit.
Sources close to the Clippers organization have revealed that Donald made the decision because he saw the handwriting on the wall and as long as he remained in control, the NBA would order an involuntary sale of the team. Something he wouldn't want to happen when he is still alive.
Meanwhile Shelly and her lawyer, Pierce O'Donnell, have been secretly meeting with NBA Commissioner Adam Silver and NBA lawyers to "resolve the dispute amicably." There are reports that Shelly realizes the NBA wants the team sold, but she has significantly more leverage and credibility with the league than Donald.

Her end game is simple - she won't object to the sale, but she wants to call the shots, according to TMZ sports.
