Utah Jazz reserve center Jeff Withey has been accused of domestic violence by his former fiancée, who filed a report with police in California.
"We are aware of the media reports involving Jeff Withey," the Jazz said in a statement released Thursday. "At this point, we are collecting information and will have no further comment until we have a better understanding of the situation."
Manhattan Beach police spokesman Sgt. Tim Zins told The Associated Press on Thursday that detectives are investigating the allegations.
