The Pistons have placed assistant general manager Rob Murphy on leave amid an investigation into allegations of inappropriate conduct with a former employee, a league source confirmed to The Detroit News on Thursday.
ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski was first to report the news that the Pistons are investigating Murphy's involvement with a woman who is a former Pistons employee. According to the report, the woman is no longer with the team.
When the Pistons organization was made aware of the allegation, the investigation commenced, and Murphy reportedly has been on leave for about a week, pending the outcome of the investigation, according to Wojnarowski's report.
