Richard Jefferson is no stranger to wild NBA takes, but this week, the former player-turned-analyst found himself clearing up a much more serious accusation.
Jefferson was accused of inappropriate behavior toward fellow ESPN analyst Chiney Ogwumike during a live broadcast.
A video that surfaced online appeared to show Jefferson making a gesture as if he were about to smack Ogwumike on the backside as she walked away on set.
The clip quickly went viral, forcing Jefferson to address the situation and defend himself against claims of misconduct.
Richard Jefferson has often caught the attention of NBA fans with the crazy things that come out of his mouth with bold NBA takes. However, this week, the former player-turned-analyst has to clear something up after he was accused of doing something sexually to a co-host.
Jefferson was accused of inappropriate behavior toward fellow analyst Chiney Ogwumike on Live TV. Recently, an NBA fan shared a video showing Jefferson appearing to smack his co-host on the booty.
As she walked away from him on set, Jefferson made a gesture that he was going to smack her on the butt.

The 42-year-old denied the whole thing while explaining he loved his job too much to engage in that type of behavior.

You can clearly see above that nothing actually happened. If so, Jefferson would’ve been suspended and possibly fired by ESPN by now.
Back in 2018, Jefferson announced his retirement from the NBA at the age of 38. The 13th overall pick in the 2001 draft, the Arizona product spent the first seven years of his career with the New Jersey Nets, helping the team reach back-to-back NBA Finals in his first two seasons.
The 6’7″ forward suited up for eight franchises during his 17-year career, helping five reach the playoffs. He played in 12 postseasons.
Paige Spiranac has revealed whether or not she’s open to posing nud3.
The former golfer, now an internet sensation as a golf influencer, is known for posting racy content, though nothing too outrageous. And, speaking during a Q&A with her Instagram followers this Monday, noted there’s a line she won’t cross as she’s never going to pose naked.
Paige explained that she wasn’t trying to knock women who do pose nud3 but it just doesn’t fit her business model.
“I’ll never do any like spicy content or nud3 work. It’s just something I’m not comfortable with,” she said (H/T OutKick). “No shame to women who do that; I know they’re making bank. But it just doesn’t fit into my long-term business plan and where I want to go in my life.”
The influencer has her own subscription site called OnlyPaige.com, where fans can see photos similar to what she posts on her social media pages, as well as golf tips. But it doesn’t appear she will be offering exclusive nud3 content on there at all.
The 30-year-old was also asked about the likes of Bri Teresi, Karin Hart, and Grace Charis, who have also become popular in her niche.
