Adrian Griffin will remain on the job as a Raptors assistant coach after allegations of abuse and parental neglect were levelled at him by his ex-wife Thursday morning.
Team officials, who spent Thursday investigating the social media allegations, said Griffin would be in his usual spot on the team bench Friday afternoon.
“When we saw these allegations this morning, we were dismayed,” the Raptor said in a statement. ”Adrian is a valuable member of our team. Our leadership immediately spoke with him, and he flatly denied the allegations in the posts. We will support the process as he and his former partner settle these matters.
