Newly hired Sacramento Kings coach Luke Walton has been accused of sexual assault by former sports reporter Kelli Tennant, who said he assaulted her in a Santa Monica hotel room sometime before he became coach of the Los Angeles Lakers in 2016, according to a report by TMZ.
In 2014, Tennant authored a book called “The Transition: Every Athlete’s Guide to Life After Sports.” The book is a guide for post-college athletes who are leaving the world of sports.
Tennant is popular on Instagram with 33,500 followers. She advertises herself as “advocating for women to help them heal, grow, and elevate their lives.
