Former Los Angeles Lakers role player and NBA head coach Byron Scott is being sued for an alleged 1987 sexual assault, according to a report from the Associated Press.
The lawsuit, which was first filed in California in December of 2022 and amended earlier this month, accuses Scott of sexual battery and false imprisonment. The amendment earlier this month included Scott's name, which he fought to have removed from the complaint prior to the release of the amended lawsuit. A judge denied Scott's request.
