Report: Josh Primo to Sign 2-Way Contract with Clippers After 4-Game NBA Suspension

Josh Primo plans to sign a two-way deal with the Los Angeles Clippers, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reported Friday.

The NBA announced earlier Friday that Primo will begin the season on a four-game suspension without pay for "conduct detrimental to the league."

The 2021 first-round pick has not played in the NBA since the San Antonio Spurs waived him in October 2022 following allegations that he exposed himself to multiple women.

Primo is participating in "ongoing therapy" and will continue seeing a therapist after joining the Clippers, Wojnarowski said.

Wojnarowski added that Primo had undergone "evaluation with specialists who consult with the Clippers and the organization is comfortable giving him this opportunity."

Primo also released a statement regarding the allegations to Wojnarowski following his release by the Spurs in October.

"I've been seeking help to deal with previous trauma I suffered and will now take this time to focus on my mental health treatment more fully," Primo wrote then.

Former team psychologist Dr. Hillary Cauthen, who accused Primo of exposing himself to her during therapy sessions, settled a lawsuit against the Spurs and Primo in November. She alleged the team did not listen to "numerous complaints about Primo's improper sexual conduct," per News 4 San Antonio.

In Friday's suspension announcement, the NBA said its investigation had found "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," the NBA said. "Nevertheless, this behavior does not conform to league standards and warrants discipline."

Primo will be eligible to join the Clippers' roster after his suspension ends on Nov. 1.

During his rookie 2021-22 season with the Spurs, Primo averaged 5.8 points in 50 games with 16 starts.
