“We released him as soon as we found out”
Prove the timeline.
But gives them ample reason to dismiss Brian Wrong.

She tried working with the organization because of conduct that they ultimately admitted was happening and released the player. It’s not like she immediately ran to Buzbee and filed suit last December.
No guarantee this ever goes to jury trial. I'm sure the Spurs lawsuit will settle or be dismissed before it ever gets there
If she has a paper trail of emails detailing the allegations and HR has reports, the argument that they just found out goes out the window.
Attorneys frequently file lawsuits to bring a certain validity to their claim especially if the defendant party feels their claim is BS. Given the high profile of a sports team it's obvious why Buzbee filed a lawsuit. It may be BS but putting it out there publicly is a bad look at Buzbee knows it, so I'm sure he thinks the bad press will force SA to cave
Very true. But if that happened, and came back as you say, I don’t know that the spurs being mum on it is doing them any favors. But we’re not privy to those strategy calls.
Worst pick in Spurs history.
Here are my notes on the presser:
- Victim started with Spurs in April 2021 and would travel with the team.
- Only incident of indecent exposure was on Dec 2021 with her.
- She tried to talk to GM but GM kept delaying it, eventually met with GM (Assuming Wright, name not mentioned) in Jan 2022
- She told GM, HR what happened. Told Pop knew about it later on.
- Victim assured there would be an investigation and report done about it and Primo being counseled. They believe none of this happened.
- There was another incident with Primo during Summer League in Las Vegas.
- There was another incident a week ago in Minnesota which led the Spurs to release Primo.
- She was told by the front office that she didn’t need to come into the office earlier this year, she was told not to go on road trips with the team anymore, Spurs front office said they lost faith in her, and her contract was not renewed (she is a contractor, not employee)
- She has 4 daughters
- Primo already has a lawyer from California and sent her lawyer a threatening letter.
- She plans to work with Bexar county to file criminal charges against Primo.
- Her lawyer filed civil lawsuits against the Spurs and Primo.
Suing Pop as part of the Spurs organization is risky, but basically saying that they would be shocked after all the things he's said in public about human rights that Pop would not have taken action against Primo is their way of saying settle this case to keep Pop's reputation in place.
To be clear the Spurs never said they released Primo because hr was exposing himself. That's what the media found out was a thing that happened, but even they only talk about sequence and not causality.
That said, it's also possible for the Spurs to have been justified in not feeling they could release Primo the first time but felt justified this most recent time because they found concrete evidence.
I want BWrong fired for basketball reasons so I wouldn't lose sleep if he had to fall on the sword...
But if this is really the extent of their case then I'm not sure if much will come out of this....
They'd need other women to step forward IMO and I think Buzbee would have alluded to that if that's something they had in their back pocket but he didn't. Could always change but that didn't seem anywhere as strong as the case against Watson tbh, not even in the same stratosphere.
Don’t think they are trying to protect Pop. They know it would be way harder to win a jury’s opinion over Saint Pop. Now convincing a jury that Brian Wright is incompetent is another story.
Really wasn’t that bad to be honest. Wright just needs to go which would be a positive.
Where have the Spurs ever said "we released him as soon as we found out"?
highly unlikely it goes to jury. most civil cases seek settlements.
I need to know the definition of exposing, is he pulling down his pants, is she looking up his shorts??
Never should have drafted him.Yeah they should have waived him after the summer league incident tbh
Is the Vegas summer league incident based on reports Buzbee got off Reddit as well?
Is Primo’s grandma ok?
As I've been saying they would if these allegations are true. 3 separate situations that are known. And there will be more, make no mistake.
Spurs are now just like every other franchise and thats one reason I always respected them that they did things the right way. Now thats gone.
There's something else Brian Wright is besides incompetent that I think they're angling for.
This won't ever get to a jury/judge tbh
Spurs will probably make a vanilla statement that probably don't even directly address the accusations. They'll privately settle with the Doc and we won't hear from Buzbee again on the matter.
It's possible that Silver privately demands a sacrificial lamb from them in which case it'd be Wright and some behind the scenes folks like HR/Legal with cushy severance packages.
And Primo will be on another roster by the time next season starts tbh.
3 separate situations reported by whom?
Totally disagree. Theyve already been tried and convictedin the press. 3 separate instances, with undoubtedly more coming?
