ESPN NBA analyst Jalen Rose apologized on Friday during halftime of the Boston Celtics and Chicago Bulls game after comments he made calling for the female staffer allegedly involved in an affair with Ime Udoka to be publicly identified.
“We know his name, maybe I’m missing something as it relates to the law, but why we don’t know her name,” Rose said during NBA Countdown. “It’s not like she’s a minor. I think we should know her name publicly, as well.”
However, Rose circled back during halftime and apologized for his remarks after gathering more information. “I would like to apologize for a comment I made earlier on NBA Countdown,” he said. “I questioned why a woman’s name who had an alleged affair with Celtics head coach Ime udoka was not made public. After an internal investigation, and it was discovered that she was a subordinate to the head coach, I now understand fully why her name should not be released to the public.”
