A psychologist who worked for the San Antonio Spurs has settled her lawsuit against the team and former player Josh Primo over allegations he had exposed himself to her multiple times in private sessions, her attorney said Thursday.

Hillary Cauthen worked as a performance psychologist for the team. She had accused the 19-year-old Primo of exposing his genitals to her nine times "despite her numerous complaints about Primo's improper sexual conduct to the organization’s leadership."

"The parties have agreed to resolve this matter," Cauthen's attorney, Tony Buzbee, said in a one-sentence statement. Details of the settlement were not disclosed.

In a statement, Spurs CEO R.C. Buford said since the allegations against Primo were made, the team has taken measures "to ensure that all parties involved are treated with dignity and respect." The team has collaborated with Cauthen and other experts.

"This is a learning opportunity for us, and one that we are certain will make us better moving forward," Buford said.

The lawsuit's settlement comes as the Bexar County Sheriff's Office continues investigating the allegations against Primo.

Primo has not signed a contract with another team.
