New Kings head coach Luke Walton is reportedly being sued for sexual assault.
Sacramento KingsTMZ reported Monday night, citing legal documents, that Kelli Tennant is suing Walton. TMZ reports that Tennant claims she went to Walton’s hotel room to discuss a book she was writing when Walton pinned her to the bed, forcibly kissed her and groped her. The alleged incident happened before Walton became coach of the Los Angeles Lakers in 2016 and while Tennant worked for Sportsnet LA.
The Kings say they are aware of the report and gathering additional information. The team had no other comment.
