Trail Blazers launch investigation into Olshey

The Trail Blazers and Owner Jody Allenhave "launched an investigation" into President of Basketball Operations Neil Olshey. The Blazers said that they are "reviewing 'concerns around workplace environment by non-player personnel at the practice facility.'" The team has "hired a firm, O'Melveny and Meyers, to conduct the review." Multiple sources said that "at least one Portland employee has reported potential misconduct that sparked an investigation into Olshey." The nature of the misconduct allegations against Olshey is "not currently known." Portland hired Olshey, 56, as GM in '12, before promoting him to President of Basketball Operations in '15 (THEATHLETIC.com, 11/6).
