NBA Star Cited for Swinging Chair at Stadium Workers After Rough Loss
OUT OF CONTROL
It’s unclear whether the 21-year-old meant to strike the women as he ran off the court and into the locker room following a narrow loss to the Denver Nuggets.
The Minnesota Timberwolves’ Anthony Edwards was cited by the Denver Police Department for third-degree assault after he picked up and swung a chair in frustration after a rough loss to the Nuggets Tuesday night, ultimately striking two women who were working at the game, according to TMZ. It’s unclear whether the 21-year-old meant to strike the women as he ran off the court and into the locker room, following the 112-109 defeat. He is set to appear in court on the charges in June—and faces up to 18 months in jail if convicted.
