Bradley Beal, a Washington Wizards shooting guard, is reportedly under police investigation after he was in a confrontation with hecklers at a game against Orlando last week.
TMZ Sports reported that the complaint against Beal happened on March 22, according to the Orlando Police Department, about 24 hours after Beal was involved in a spat with 2 fans following his team’s 122-112 loss to the Magic in Florida.
The dispute between Beal and the fans happened right after the 29-year-old hooper was walking down a tunnel to the Wizards’ locker room area at Amway Center. One of the people in the group yelled at Beal, “You f***ed me [out of] $1,300, you f***!”
The exchange continued, as Beal turned, walked toward the fans, and appeared to knock the hat off one of the fan’s head in response to the heckle. Beal and the fans then went back and forth, with Beal calling the comment “disrespectful.”
“Keep it a buck,” Beal said. “I don’t give a f*** about none of your bets or your parlays, bro. That ain’t why I play the game.”
