In July 2026, veteran broadcaster Jacob Tobey was dismissed from his position as lead play-by-play announcer for the San Antonio Spurs following a public cheating scandal. The controversy erupted when his girlfriend of six years, Kasserine Taylor, used his personal Instagram account to reveal an alleged affair with Loren Waters.
Loren Waters, an independent filmmaker and producer, is the sister of current Spurs guard Lindy Waters III. Despite the personal controversy, Waters has achieved significant professional success, including work on Hulu's 'Reservation Dogs' and Martin Scorsese's 'Killers of the Flower Moon.' She was also recognized on Forbes' 30 Under 30 list and founded Waters Media, focusing on projects with Native voices.
The public exposure of the alleged affair occurred when Taylor posted a confession on Tobey's Instagram, stating he had cheated with Waters. This led to the end of their six-year relationship. Taylor revealed she discovered the infidelity while visiting Tobey's family. Waters also serves as executive director for the Lindy Waters III Foundation, which supports Native youth initiatives.
