Jewell Loyd Requests Trade From Seattle Storm After Accusations Of Harassment Against Staff Turned Out To Be False

In the latest news, Jewell Loyd has reportedly requested a trade from the Seattle Storm. This comes after accusations of harassment and bullying against the team’s coaching staff turned out to be false.

Loyd, who had initially filed the complaint detailing the allegations against the Seattle staff, has now decided to part ways with the organization. The external investigation into the reported accusations concluded without finding any violations, leading to Loyd’s change of heart.

This is what the Seattle Storm had to say after the investigations;

“The Storm recently received internal allegations of potential workplace policy violations,” the team said in a statement provided to ESPN. “The organization retained an outside investigator to conduct an impartial investigation into the allegations. The investigation has been completed and there were no findings of policy violations or any discrimination, harassment, or bullying.

“To protect the integrity of the process, and to preserve confidentiality, we chose not to comment while the investigation was ongoing. The Storm will continue to provide a work environment in which all individuals are treated with respect.”

It remains to be seen which team Loyd will be playing for next, but this unexpected turn of events has certainly shaken the Seattle Storm franchise and its fan base.
