ESPN: Celtics’ Udoka used ‘crude’ language with female staffer

BOSTON (WLNE) — ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski is reporting suspended Boston Celtics head coach Ime Udoka used crude language with a female staffer prior to starting a relationship with the woman.

Wojnarowski said sources told ESPN that an independent investigation showed Udoka used the ‘concerning’ language with the staffer prior to engaging in a relationship.

Udoka was suspended last week for the entire season after ESPN and several other outlets reported Udoka had a relationship with a female staffer.

The Celtics said Udoka was suspended for multiple violations of team policies.

Johnston native Joe Mazzulla has been tabbed as the Celtics’ interim head coach.
