Avery Bradley has entered into a confidentiality agreement with a reality TV star who accused him of sexual assault in May, according to TMZ Sports. Bradley denies all wrongdoing, and his attorney told TMZ they entered into the confidentiality agreement to “prevent false information from being made public.

“The confidentiality agreement specifically refutes and denies the validity of all allegations of any wrongful conduct by Mr. Bradley,” Bradley’s attorney, Brian Wolf of Lavely & Singer, told TMZ. “The sole purpose of the agreement was to protect the reputation and privacy of Mr. Bradley and his family.”

The woman involved claimed Bradley sexually assaulted her while she was passed out drunk on May 23 in Cleveland while the Celtics were in town to play the Cavaliers during the Eastern Conference Finals. Bradley is now a member of the Detroit Pistons but spent the first seven years of his career in Boston.

According to TMZ, the woman reached out to Bradley after the incident and accused him of assaulting her. The two then came together to work out a confidentiality agreement that would stop her from releasing any “video, photos or audio.”

The negotiations reportedly reached $400,000, though the final figure is unclear according to TMZ.
