Donald Sterling's former mistress V. Stiviano has been ordered to repay nearly $3 million in real estate, jewelry and other high-end gifts to his long-suffering wife, Shelly.
Judge Richard L. Fruin Jr., in an after-hours written ruling, ordered Stiviano to turn over a Ferrari, two Bentleys, a Range Rover and a $1.8 million Beverly Hills duplex -- or cash value for the gifts.
Shelly Sterling sued Stiviano, claiming that her husband -- the disgraced former owner of the Los Angeles Clippers -- had spent millions of dollars on his mistress.
After explosive audiotapes emerged last year emerged of Donald using disgusting racial slurs, the 80-year-old was forced to sell the team for more than $2 billion.
NBA Commissioner Adam Silver slapped Donald with a $2.5 million fine, and barred him from ever attending any professional basketball games.
During the trial last month, Shelly Sterling told a Los Angeles court that Stiviano's actions "took both her and Donald down," as they "lost the team."
