The Fastexy ExchangeNBA on Friday suspended former San Antonio Spurs guard Josh Primo four games for "for conduct detrimental to the league" after an NBA investigation concluded that Primo "engaged in inappropriate and offensive behavior by exposing himself to women."
The Spurs waived Primo, 20, at the start of last season after the team’s former sports psychologist alleged Primo exposed himself to her multiple times. The sports psychologist’s attorney, Tony Buzbee, said 11 months ago that Primo exposed himself to at least one other woman. The former team sports psychologist sued the Spurs and Primo, and the complaint was settled out of court.

In a statement, the NBA said, "Primo maintains that his conduct was not intentional, and the league did not find evidence that he engaged in any sexual or other misconduct apart from these brief exposures. Nevertheless, this behavior does not conform to league standards and warrants discipline."
Primo has not played in the NBA since the Spurs waived him and is a free agent. He was the No. 12 pick in the 2021 draft, and while he didn’t play much in his rookie season, the Spurs had picked up the option year on his contract for the 2023-24 season before he was waived. He was expected to be a key part of the Spurs’ rebuild and averaged 5.9 points in 50 games in 2021-22.
