Spurs Fire Broadcaster Amid Alleged Affair | San Antonio Spurs News

The San Antonio Spurs have fired longtime play-by-play voice Jacob Tobey amid explosive allegations of an affair with the sister of star player Lindy Waters III — a scandal allegedly exposed through deleted social media posts from Tobey’s ex-girlfriend. Just two seasons into his tenure, Tobey’s exit comes as the Spurs navigate a broadcasting overhaul after ending their deal with Fan Duel Sports Network. Despite his promising career — including stints with Fox Sports and the Pac-12 Network, and a spot on lists of top up-and-coming announcers — the team’s decision underscores the high stakes of broadcasting in a franchise on the rise with Victor Wembanyama leading the charge. No official statements have been issued by the Spurs, Tobey, or the Waters family. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
