NBA Investigating Referee Eric Lewis for Alleged Burner Account on Twitter

The NBA is investigating veteran referee Eric Lewis over the potential use of a burner Twitter account that responded several times to messages that had been critical of him and other NBA officials. The league is likely looking into the violation of a rule that prohibits referees from publicly commenting on officiating matters without proper league approval. Lewis, who is in his 19th season as an NBA referee, could face discipline from the league. Burner accounts on Twitter have been an issue in recent seasons in the NBA.

NBA Investigates Referee Eric Lewis Over Alleged Burner Account on Twitter

The NBA is investigating referee Eric Lewis for allegedly using a burner account on Twitter to defend himself and other referees regarding basketball officiating. NBA referees are not allowed to comment publicly on officiating without permission. The account, now deleted, appeared under the username "Blair Cutcliffe." The NFL has had only one real burner account issue, when it was learned that the Commissioner's wife had a burner account that she used both to defend him and to attack his critics.

NBA Investigates Referee Eric Lewis Over Alleged Burner Twitter Account

The NBA is investigating referee Eric Lewis over a Twitter burner account, @CuttliffBlair, which posted tweets in defense of Lewis and other NBA officials. If tied to the account, Lewis could face discipline for violating a league rule against referees commenting on officiating publicly without authorization. Lewis has been a referee in the NBA for nearly two decades and has officiated several playoff games this season. The investigation comes after an old photo of Lewis' family in Celtics gear was discovered on Twitter, bringing attention to Boston's abnormally good record in games he's officiated.

Did Elon Musk Accidentally Reveal His Secret Twitter Account?

Elon Musk may have accidentally leaked his burner account, @ErmnMusk, which used a photo of his son as its avatar. While it's unclear if it's really his account, evidence suggests it could be. The account made mundane tweets but also posted uncomfortable comments about women and pretended to be Musk's son. The account was created soon after Musk purchased Twitter, and the image of his son was uploaded on November 29, 2022, which hasn't appeared anywhere else online before. While it's not a big deal, it's a social media mishap that echoes Musk's general online demeanor.
