Ex-Spurs player Joshua Primo, who is currently without a team, has been handed a four-game suspension by the NBA for behavior that goes against the league’s standards.
The announcement came today through an official press release.
Primo was released by the San Antonio team in October of last year amidst accusations of inappropriate actions towards women, including a sports psychologist employed by the Spurs.
Legal action was taken by the said employee against Primo and the Spurs, but a settlement was reached a few weeks later.
The NBA conducted its own inquiry into these allegations against the former lottery pick, as revealed in their Friday statement.
“Following that process, the league found that Primo engaged in inappropriate and offensive behavior by exposing himself to women,” the league’s statement reads.
“Primo maintains that his conduct was not intentional, and the league did not find evidence that he engaged in any sexual or other misconduct apart from these brief exposures. Nevertheless, this behavior does not conform to league standards and warrants discipline.”
