An ESPN report details incidents with Suns CEO Jason Rowley employees say contributed to toxic workplace under Robert Sarver.
Phoenix Suns interim governor Sam Garvin told The Arizona Republic in a recent interview he can speak with Robert Sarver about “extraordinary items” involving the team, such as major trades that would impact the salary cap, even though Sarver is otherwise suspended from franchise activities.
."One thing I’ve tried to do is support and accelerate that change and really connect with all of the Suns employees and make sure that they think it’s a safe, respectful, positive place to come and work. That’s been a challenge, but not an insurmountable challenge."However, an ESPN report posted Monday addresses an area in which Garvin does not have authority that continues to impact the environment within the organization.
Several Suns employees told ESPN about the incident as the team sponsor reportedly also texted the female employee his hotel room number and photos of his room. The female employee still must attend events where the team sponsor rep is present, ESPN reported.“We’re going to continue to change," Garvin said in the earlier interview with The Republic."It’s a journey. We’re not there yet, but we’re going to get there.
“Male team executives tried to terminate the female employee while she was on leave, but the employee's female supervisor persuaded them to wait until the employee returned to work to eliminate her position," according to the Watchell and Lipton report.
