I assume they didn't inform people early on and then they continued it when they were told not to.....One year? Stevens comes down for a year?

That seems insane for a consensual relationship.

The NBA’s gone full puritan.

Anyone want to check on Nia Long? I mean she's probably mad about all this.

"My body. My choice." seems to be an inconsistent standard.

Consensual isn't always consensual when you are a subordinate. Phil Jackson should probably retroactively sue the Lakers.

I would think that every NBA team imposed similar rules after the Knicks paid out $11MM to Isaiah Thomas' coworker.

I doubt it. You know this is going on in every organization in professional sports. I imagine the Celtics probably told them to end their relationship a couple of times before throwing the book at Udoka.

I don't doubt that it's going on everywhere and that he was warned at least unofficially, but it's still pretty damn dumb on his part. Consensual or not, he has to have cost himself tens of millions.

Can’t they just sign a waiver or something?

You should disclose the relationship to HR and work with them to make it kosher within the confines of the company.

Yep, my former employer had three different in-house marriages. One was a Board member and a project manager, the other two were both sets of peers working together on projects where one still would have nominal rank over the other. The first one caused a bit of a kerfluffle and the new wife left, the other two were really seamless because they went to HR and their bosses and they worked things out in terms of keeping things transparent.

They fucked on the Lucky the Leprechaun logo at half court, disrespecting the franchise and drawing the wrath of Perk, KG, and Big Baby. Something had to be done.

I'm not sure if a workplace will sign off on an affair.

I'm not sure if it was an affair. Either way, to me, it should be irrelevant to HR (assuming the victim wife/husband doesn't also work at the company). HR does not know/should not know about the health of your marriage, if you're formally/informally seperated or not, etc. They just typically know you're married (through tax forms you may file, etc.)

So, even if you were to disclose to HR that you're dating someone, and they have it on record that you're married, I can't see how the knowledge of you being legally married would be relevant, assuming HR is also not playing the role of morality enforcement. Curious as to what the board lawyers might say.
