REUTERS/Eduardo Munoz/File PhotoAug 21 - The National Basketball Association's New York Knicks sued rivals the Toronto Raptors in Manhattan on Monday, accusing the Raptors' new coaching staff of hiring a "mole" who gave the team their scouting reports and other confidential material.
"As a first time NBA head coach, Defendant Rajakovic would be expected to bring his own organizational structure and coaching method," said the Knicks' lawsuit, which names Rajakovic, Azotam and several unidentified Raptors employees as defendants. The Knicks first hired Azotam as a video coordinator in 2020. The lawsuit said Azotam was recruited by the Raptors starting in June and told the Knicks he had received a job offer from them in late July.
