The New York Knicks have launched a lawsuit against a former team employee, Ikechukwu Azotam, accusing him of sharing confidential information he stole from the franchise with his new organization in the Toronto Raptors.

Ian Begley of SNY first broke the news on Monday, revealing the saga and publishing the official statements made by both the Knicks and Raptors in response.

In lawsuit filed today and obtained by SNY, Knicks allege that a former employee “illegally took thousands of proprietary files with him to his new position” with the Raptors.
