Joshua Primo was initially the 12th pick in the 2021 NBA Draft by the San Antonio Spurs (after one season of college basketball playing for the Alabama Crimson Tide). 

During the middle of last season, the Spurs released Primo following allegations.

On Friday morning, the NBA announced that they had suspended Primo for four games without pay. 

Via NBA Communications: "The NBA announced today that Joshua Primo has been suspended four games without pay for conduct detrimental to the league. The league conducted its own investigation and consulted with relevant experts. Following that process, the league found that Primo engaged in inappropriate and offensive behavior by exposing himself to women. 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."
