Per Sports Illustrated, that investigation is now focusing upon Bryan Colangelo’s wife, Barbara Bottini. Suspicious social media accounts appeared the moment Colangelo was officially hired by the Philadelphia 76ers organization, and those social media tweets shared very privy information that would only be known and protected by the Sixers’ staff. But it goes beyond just Twitter.
