Coach Ime Udoka was suspended for the 2022-23 season after an affair with a team staffer within the organization went public. The source added,

“The Situation is unfortunate and painful, but Nia is focusing on her children and rebuilding her life.”

Whilst, the 52-years old actress also urged the team that they should have to think about her and her son, whom she shared with her fiance Ime Udoka, before publishing a very private situation in public.

She told The Hollywood Reporter during an interview last week,

“If you’re in the business of protecting women — I’m sorry, no one from the Celtics organization has even called to see if I’m OK, to see if my children are OK,”

“I think the most heart-breaking thing about all of this was seeing my son’s face when the Boston Celtics organization decided to make a very private situation public.”

Nia and Ime had an immediate spark when the two met in Baston in 2010 where they were set up by a mutual friend in February 2010. The two took a milestone in their relationship in 2015 by getting an engagement.

Similarly, the two share one child together, an 11-year-old son Kez, who was born in June 2011. Long was also a mom to a son Massai from a previous relationship.
