From NBA media reports

Philadelphia 76ers team president Bryan Colangelo is in the midst of an investigation into anonymous Twitter accounts that have reportedly been linked to him. According to ESPN.com and Philly.com, the investigation is ongoing, but it may not end well for Colangelo.

According to both websites, some league sources say that Colangelo may lose his job as Sixers president as a result of the incident. The Ringer website alleged in a report Tuesday night that Colangelo is connected to anonymous Twitter accounts that have revealed sensitive team information and criticized players and coach Brett Brown.

Per ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski and Zach Lowe, the Sixers have focused their investigation on Colangelo's wife, Barbara Bottini, and her possible connection with the burner Twitter accounts:

As a Philadelphia 76ers internal probe into anonymous Twitter accounts has become increasingly focused on the wife of president of basketball operations Bryan Colangelo, franchise ownership is seriously considering Colangelo's dismissal, league sources told ESPN.

Colangelo, a two-time past NBA Executive of the Year, has discussed with ownership and upper management the possibility that his wife, Barbara Bottini, may have been involved in the postings of the tweets from so-called burner accounts, league sources said.

So far, Philadelphia ownership has shown little, if any, inclination to separate Colangelo's culpability in the matter should a family member or close associate be proven responsible for the postings, league sources said.

While many of Colangelo's staff with the Sixers are bracing for his dismissal, some are still holding on to hope that he can somehow survive this firestorm with this job, sources say.

Keith Pompey of Philly.com reports that Colangelo has not been absent for the last two days of the agent-run predraft workouts being held on the West Coast this week. In addition, a league source told Pompey that Colangelo was visably shaken when the report broke while he was attending the workout in Los Angeles.

Some league sources expect Colangelo to lose his job as the Sixers president of basketball operations.

The Sixers announced the investigation on Wednesday morning in a written statement. As a result, Colangelo was not on hand for that day’s multiple workouts at the Sports Academy in Los Angeles, according to sources. Sources said Colangelo, who turned 53 today, also did not attend Thursday’s multiple workouts in Las Vegas.

Numerous players and league sources suggested in the last two days that it will be difficult for Colangelo to keep his position with the Sixers as a result of the report.

“The only way that he’ll get out of it is if he comes with evidence that somebody set him up,” said a league executive, speaking on condition of anonymity. “If it is out there where they can’t prove either way, I don’t think he’ll keep his job. And if there’s involvement with a family member, it doesn’t look like he has a chance either.”

The source added, unless the perpetrator made some mistakes, it would be hard to definitively prove who tweeted out the information.

According to ESPN's league sources, the Sixers also commissioned an outside law firm to investigate the matter, an investigation that has already included Colangelo surrending his cell phones. In addition, league sources told ESPN that Colangelo has told close associates he knows who made the tweets. But he also insisted to those inside and outside of the investigation that he had nothing to do with the tweets and was unaware of them until The Ringer brought them to the team's attention prior to publishing the story.

NBA commissioner Adam Silver responded the Colangelo/Sixers issue at his Finals news conference Thursday, saying the investigation will be get done, but not by cutting corners.

“Well, for the league there is always that balance of speed and doing things in a deliberate and appropriate way,” Silver said. “So I have talked to management at the 76ers, and the notion here was let’s find out what’s going on.
