LOS ANGELES — The Sacramento Kings allegedly retaliated against two former members of its dance troupe after they accused the team's choreographer of sexual harassment, according to a lawsuit filed Tuesday. The dancers, who filed as Jane Doe 1 and 2 in Sacramento County Superior Court, said their complaints about Matthew Day were not addressed before they were both not invited back to this season's squad. The Kings NBA team and Day were named as defendants by the unidentified dancers.

' Doe 2 said she had told Day she wasn't interested in his offers to get her a job outside the Sacramento Kings, but he went on to send pictures of her 'to a third-party promotions company without her consent,' the lawsuit said. Day declined to say if he forwarded pictures of a dancer without her permission. He also characterized his work with the Kings as an outside consultant rather than a choreographer.
