Hawks GM Danny Ferry takes indefinite leave in wake of racism controversy

September 13, 2014/ Tron Nick

Atlanta Hawks general manager Danny Ferry has taken an indefinite leave after the release of an audio recording of him reading a racist scouting report in June, the team announced Friday.

Ferry was on a conference call with the Hawks' ownership group when he discussed Luol Deng. Apparently reading a report written by an external scout, Ferry said, "He's got some African in him. And I don't say that in a bad way. But he's like a guy who would have a nice store out front but sell your counterfeit stuff out of the back."
