Ime Udoka will face a “significant” suspension, according to the Boston Globe.
According to sources, Ime Udoka is being punished because of “his role in a consensual, intimate relationship with a member of staff of the franchise who is also a consensual partner,” and he is expected to be disciplined.

The Boston Globe’s Adam Himmelsbach, among others, confirmed Wednesday night that Udoka has been suspended as a result of his disciplinary actions.
There is a possibility that a final decision on Udoka may come down sometime on Thursday, according to Himmelsbach. After replacing Brad Stevens following the departure of the Celtics in the summer of 2021, Udoka was hired by the team.

It was reported by Wojnarowski that Joe Mazzulla, who was an assistant coach for the Celtics, would be given serious consideration if Udoka were suspended in the interim.
In addition to serving as an assistant coach for the Spurs, 76ers, and Nets as well as having a career as an NBA player, Udoka joined the Celtics in 2018.Currently, he is engaged to actress Nia Long, and the couple has a 11-year-old son who is the couple’s only child.
