The woman who accused Luke Walton of sexually assaulting her in a hotel room in 2017 has officially dropped her lawsuit against the NBA coach, TMZ Sports has learned.
Kelli Tennant — a former sports reporter — had sued Walton claiming he forced himself on her in a Santa Monica hotel room while he was an asst. coach with the Golden State Warriors. In her lawsuit, Tennant claimed Walton forced kisses on her neck, face and chest — and despite telling to stop, he held her down, groped her breasts and groin, and rubbed his erection on her leg.
Tennant claimed she was “in shock and fear. She was afraid she was about to be raped,” the suit states.
That’s a wrap.
Walton can now get back to focusing on rebuilding the Kings.
