Let’s TALK ABOUT IT! EVERYBODY is.. so let’s DIVE in. The Boston Celtics’ coach and fiance to Nia Long, Ime Udoka is facing DISCIPLNARY action from the NBA for alleged improper and consensual relationship with a member of the Celtics’ staffer.
According to a report from Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN on Wednesday, Udoka has violated the team’s organizational guidelines and he risked a “significant suspension” for his conduct.
Udoka’s violation, according to Shams Charania of The Athletic, was that he “had an improper intimate and consensual relationship with a female member of the team staff.”
Long has not addressed the situation yet, but her FANS are NOT happy with this TURN of EVENTS!
UPDATE!!!
The Boston Celtics have suspended second-year head coach Ime Udoka for the entire 2022-23 NBA season for violations of the team’s code of conduct, the organization announced on Thursday night.
Assistant coach Joe Mazzulla will serve as the team’s interim head coach in Udoka’s absence, according to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski. A decision about Udoka’s longterm future with the team beyond the 2022-23 season, the Celtics said, “will be made at a later date.” Udoka issued an apology in a vague statement.
“I want to apologize to our players, fans, the entire Celtics organization, and my family for letting them down,” Udoka said, via ESPN’s Malika Andrews. “I am sorry for putting the team in this difficult situation, and I accept the team’s decision. Out of respect for everyone involved, I will have no further comment.”
