NBA referee Eric Lewis will not work the Finals amid an investigation into claims he used a Twitter burner account to defend himself and his colleagues.
confirmed the omission is directly related to the investigation ... saying,"Regarding Eric Lewis and the social media posts, we are continuing to review the matter, and he will not be working the Finals."
The NBA launched a probe into Lewis, a 19-year veteran who has officiated over 1,200 regular and postseason games, after a Twitter account responded to posts on league officiating, seemingly defending Lewis and his contemporaries.The tweets in question have reportedly been deleted, but the account, listed under"Blair Cuttliff" with the handle @CuttliffBlair, is still active.
It's unclear if Lewis was really behind the burner account. It's a big problem if he was ... as the NBA has a rule prohibiting referees from publicly commenting on officiating without authorization.
