Murphy, 50, has been out of the Pistons' offices for approximately a week on leave after management was made aware of the allegation and started a probe, via the report.

Murphy received a promotion to assistant general manager earlier this year after previously holding the title of president and general manager of the G-League affiliate Motor City Cruise.

He spent 20 years prior as a college coach.

The Pistons' investigation follows the season-long suspension of Boston Celtics head coach Ime Udoka following an improper workplace relationship with a female employee.
