There has been an increased interest from fans about the controversy surrounding president of basketball operations, Bryan Colangelo, and his connection to Twitter accounts that have leaked information about Philadelphia’s basketball team.

The Philadelphia 76ers have gotten a hold of a law firm to investigate Colangelo and his reported involvement with Twitter accounts that disclosed potential roster moves and bagged on Sixers players.

Per Bleacher Reports, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reported that Philadelphia reacted out to the same firm, Paul/Weiss, that investigated impropriety of former NBPA director Billy Hunter.

The investigation of the NBPA director found a number of abuses of power from Hunter, who was subsequently fired.
