National Basketball Association players should consider replacing Billy Hunter as their union chief after he focused on personal interests ahead of the organization, New York law firm Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison said after a nine-month investigation.
Hunter, 70, didn’t do anything illegal, the law firm said. It said he failed to manage conflicts of interest and hid the fact that his contract as executive director of the National Basketball Players Association wasn’t properly approved.
