Civil suit against Kings' coach Luke Walton dropped

Kelli Tennant, who alleged that Sacramento Kings head coach Luke Walton sexually assaulted her in 2014, has filed court documents to drop her civil lawsuit against Walton.

The request for dismissal was filed on Tuesday in Los Angeles Superior Court. The document asked a judge to dismiss with prejudice, which means she cannot file again on this issue.

Tennant, a former host on Spectrum SportsNet LA, the Lakers' regional sports network, filed the civil lawsuit against Walton in April.

In August, investigators for the Kings and the NBA determined that, based on available evidence, there was "not a sufficient basis to support" the sexual assault allegations made against Walton.
