NBA Launches Investigation Into Referee Eric Lewis Over Alleged Twitter Burner Account

The NBA is looking into whether a Twitter account defending Lewis's officiating actually belonged to the 19-year veteran referee.
The @CuttliffBlair account followed accounts related to the NBA, referees, and Lewis's wife's team, raising suspicions it was Lewis's burner.
Lewis could face discipline if found to have violated NBA rules against referees commenting on officiating without permission.
The news prompted reactions from LeBron James, Patrick Beverley, and others around the league.
Burner accounts have caused issues for NBA personnel in the past, like ex-Sixers GM Bryan Colangelo.
