A former Phoenix Suns employee's lawsuit has ignited controversy, alleging CEO Josh Bartelstein had an affair with WNBA star Sophie Cunningham. The Suns have vehemently denied the allegations, threatening legal action against those spreading false narratives.

Traylor isn't the only Suns employee, past or present, to levy allegations of discrimination towards the Ishbia-led side. In April, a Hispanic woman, identified in her complaint as Jane Doe, launched a lawsuit against Phoenix accusing the organization of retaliation and fostering a hostile work environment.

ESPN reported the Phoenix Suns are being sued by a current employee for discrimination, harassment and retaliation.
