Billy Hunter, the executive director of the National Basketball Players Association since 1996, has been placed on indefinite leave and appears to be on his way out permanently.The decision, which was announced by NBPA president Derek Fisher in a statement on Friday morning, comes in the wake of an internal investigation that called Hunter’s business practices into question following the NBA lockout in 2012. NBPA attorney Ron Klempner has been placed in Hunter’s position on an interim basis “until further decisions can be made,” according to the statement.
