Timberwolves exec had hard drive stolen with 'strategic NBA information' on it copied, charge says

A work hard drive holding sensitive strategic team information was stolen from the Target Center office of the head of the Minnesota Timberwolves' analytics department and copied last month by a disgruntled subordinate, according to a criminal complaint filed Wednesday.

Sachin Gupta got the hard drive back a little more than a week later but not before roughly 5,700 files were copied that held employment and player contracts, "as well as strategic NBA information." Also on the hard drive were Gupta's tax returns and other financial information, and his login and passwords from a password management app, the complaint read.
