Why was Donald Sterling fined?

I completely understand a private institution banning someone, but what's with the giant $2.5 million fine? All he did was be racist. That shit will ban you from anywhere, including Bungie.net, but would Bungie.net fine me $2.5 million? I just don't understand how someone could be sued for social justice's sake. What "damages" did he cause with racism? Last I checked, there are no physical damages for hurt feelings. I swear, I didn't have any interest in this until I hovered over a video on YouTube's front page and noticed a $2.5 million fine. Makes no sense to me whatsoever. It's only a matter of time until the US ends up like Sweden and completely prohibits criticism of immigration policies.

    Being a part of an organization like the NBA requires you to follow certain rules, and there are consequences for violating those rules. Which include conduct detrimental to the organization as a whole.
