Boston Celtics players will be working with a new head coach this upcoming season after Ime Udoka was suspended for a full year, and it does not sound like any of them knew the drastic change was coming.
The Celtics announced last week that Udoka has been suspended for the entire 2022-23 season for multiple violations of team policies. While the team did not share details, reports have said Udoka engaged in an improper intimate but consensual relationship with a fellow Celtics employee. A more recent report claimed the 45-year-old coach was also accused of making unwanted comments toward the woman.
Jaylen Brown was asked about the situation on Monday. The star swingman said he and his teammates were “shocked” and “confused” by the Udoka situation.
