The news was reported by ESPNanchor Adrian Wojnarowski that the Nigerian-born coach's “relationship was considered a violation of the organization’s guidelines,” meaning his job is in jeopardy.

Wojnarowski is referncing a tweet from Shams Charania, the senior lead NBA inside for The Athletic and Stadium who tweeted; Celtics coach Ime Udoka had an improper intimate and consensual relationship with a female member of the team staff, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium. It’s been deemed a violation of franchise’s code of conduct."

The coach is about to feel like a player if the league goes through with the possible suspension they are discussing.

According to ESPN, “a decision on the length of that suspension is expected to come as soon as Thursday. While no final decision has been made, internal discussions have included scenarios that would keep Udoka out for the entirety of the 2022-23 season.”

They are also allegedly discussing his job after the suspension is up. Keep in mind Udoka only started this job in 2021-22 season so, if they have to move on from him,  the are probably assuming it won’t be that big of a deal.
