Former Suns Player Rex Chapman Gets Trashed For His Take on The Robert Sarver Allegations

Former Phoenix Suns guard Rex Chapman has created a second career (of sorts) for himself on Twitter. He’s often on social media posting a bunch of viral videos, political takes, etc. on a daily basis.

So when news dropped about the Suns owner Robert Sarver’s history of racism and misogyny, it was only a matter of time before Chapman weighed in.

Specifically, a story of Sarver using the N-Word repeatedly when speaking in relation to Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green turned a bunch of heads and led to an NBA investigation.

Check out what Rec Chapman had to say about his experiences with Robert Sarver.

But the Robert Sarver I know is not a racist. I couldn’t and wouldn’t put up with it. The people he’s hired with Suns and Mercury over the past two decades have been amazingly diverse. 2/2

Rex Chapman was immediately put in his place by people who reminded him that just because Robert Sarver treated him well, doesn’t mean the allegations against him aren’t true.

C’mon Rex. You’re better than this. Doesn’t matter what your experience was. 70 other people (many of whom weren’t multi-millionaire athletes) had a different experience. By standing up for Sarver, you’re calling all their stories into question. Be an ally, not an enabler.

I think whether you like Rex Chapman’s daily content or not, we can all agree that it probably would’ve been for the best if he would’ve sat out the Sarver situation.
