Nia Long heard all the noise around the Ime Udoka cheating scandal and is now ready to speak her truth. The Hollywood actress had a long-standing relationship with the suspended Boston Celtics head coach, but things have ended now following a summer full of comments regarding Ime’s private life. 

Long was one of the most affected people in this situation, as she was cheated on by the person she loved, and the news was discussed by everybody for a long time. Initially, she didn’t want to talk about any of that, even refusing to answer questions from reporters. 

Now, she’s speaking out, even calling the Boston Celtics for the way they handled their situation, especially the fact that they leaked this info to the public. Long revealed how hard it was for her and her kid to go through this situation and how everything changed for them due to the same. 


Nia Long Has Big Reaction To Stephen A. Smith’s Comments On The Ime Udoka Cheating Scandal

Amid all these bad moments, both Long and Udoka found somebody who looked after them and also blasted the Celtics for letting this info be known by everybody. Stephen A. Smith was a huge critic of the C’s for airing all of this. The ESPN analyst didn’t like any of that, giving a different approach to this whole situation.

Stephen A. doubled down on those comments recently, and Long heard what he had to say. She reacted to this, agreeing with Stephen A.’s remarks, crediting him for being the first one to speak against the Celtics organization.

“Absolutely, 100 percent, he was the first person who said it. I agree with it,” Long replied. “It’s been incredibly difficult for me to manage all of that while working and trying to be a mom and trying to find the humanity in all of it. It just feels like no one thought of me, or my children. The Celtics were irresponsible…”

This is something that could have been easily avoided, but after the news saw the light, without any real purpose, everybody had something to say about it. Stephen A. was quick to blast the Celtics for letting this info go public, and Long felt the same. She’s no longer together with Udoka after all this happened, but it’s clear that she still has things to get off her chest.
