E-40 will NOT attend Warriors' Game 2 at Sacramento after claiming 'racial bias' following ejection

Bay Area rapper E-40 will not be in attendance at the Kings-Warriors Game 2 at Golden 1 Center in Sacramento Monday night - two days on from his ejection.    

E-40, otherwise known as Earl Stevens, alleged 'racial bias' was the reason he was kicked out during the fourth quarter of the Kings-Warriors game Saturday night. 

According to Shams Charania, the big San Francisco sports fan will attend the Warriors home game which is Game 3, but not Game 2 after the weekend's incident.

E-40 put on a statement on social media Sunday morning conveying his version of events as video emerged on social media of him arguing with security and other fans while being removed. 

Warriors star Klay Thompson spoke about the news Sunday night, expressing his appreciation for the rapper and his hope the situation can be rectified. 

E-40 was seen yelling at security after he was removed during the fourth quarter Saturday

'I love 40. He’s been our biggest supporter for years & I hope they right that ship,' Thomas said via 95.7 The Game. 

'In my time knowing him he’s always been respectful and considerate of those around him so it was very weird to see and I hope it’s resolved.'

E-40's statement alleged he endured 'disrespectful heckling over the course of the Warriors-Kings game.' 

'During the fourth quarter, I finally turned around and addressed one heckler in an assertive but polite manner. Yet, shortly thereafter, Kings' security approached me, assumed that I instigated the encounter and proceeded to kick me out of the arena. 

'Unfortunately, it was yet another reminder that — despite my success and accolades as a musician and entrepreneur — racial bias remains prevalent. 

'Security saw a disagreement between a Black man and a white woman and immediately assumed I was at fault.

'I was absolutely humiliated by the Kings' security team and I'm calling on the franchise to investigate the appalling conduct that transpired.' 

Since, the Kings have released a statement, announcing they are looking into the matter.

'The Sacramento Kings take these claims seriously and are investigating the facts and circumstances regarding the situation, as we do anytime an accusation like this is made.'

The "Tell Me When to Go" artist is a Vallejo, CA. native and is known for his passion for the hometown Warriors and San Francisco Giants.  

Golden State were unable to get the win Saturday night, losing 126-123 as Sacramento won its first playoff game in 17 years.

The Warriors have a chance to tie the series at 1-1 on tonight in the very same stadium. Whether E-40 will once again be in the house is yet to be clear.
