Jacob Tobey out as Spurs announcer after Instagram post alleges affair with player’s sister

A change is coming to the Spurs broadcast booth after shocking allegations exploded on social media.

Jacob Tobey is out as the team’s play-by-play announcer after his girlfriend accused him on social media of cheating with a relative of a Spurs player, per Ryan Glasspiegel of Front Office Sports.

Earlier this week an Instagram Story was posted on Tobey’s account alleging his cheating with Loren Waters, who is the sister of Spurs guard Lindy Waters III.

“This is my girlfriend of six years,” the post read. “But I cheated on her with Loren Waters. So feel free to continue following me if you really think I’m a good guy because I’m not. :)”

The post was soon followed by another that featured what appeared to be photo booth prints of Tobey and Loren Waters kissing.

“Me and the new girl,” was written over the photo.

Fans suggested the posts were uploaded by Tobey’s girlfriend, who may have access to the account.

Tobey’s social accounts have since been turned to private.

Tobey, who has also sang the national anthem before Spurs games, previously announced in June he signed a multi-year extension to remain in the role.
