Number of people who are surprised at this: ZERO.

Tales From The Hood 💀

[@kelvinbirch5641]

This could've been avoided... all he had to do is leave and moved on and go their separate ways and he would still make his money but yet he ruined his career because of poor choices.... another tragic tale of wasted youth

[@danielroshunsmith6351]

He needs help, that girl is beautiful and didn't deserve this

[@ktrevino63]

What a disgrace to be called an NBA player! Why can’t men when in a hostile relationship just break it off. Or get so help with their anger issues. I don’t feel sorry for him at all if he did it. He’s an adult.

[@AP90x]

These dudes dont deal well when things dont go their way

[@frankrivera7460]

Now she's getting that NBA money 💰.

[@kc8767]

Criminally, this dude is underrated.

[@Eazy-ERyder]

I hope they make an EXAMPLE of him. This can NEVER be tolerated

[@callumfreebairn8082]

where he would have been charged, he's now arrested

[@jus3278]

Man I hate this😢

[@patriciaschuster1371]

Ah yes. Such good sportsmanship. Kick him off any team.

[@ethanjarceo1952]

"You're down a thousand points"

[@mrfroghello]

Another upstanding basketball person.

[@jaykaywest112]

I am not surprised.

[@jones2277]

Why are they all so violent?

[@spaghetti1263]

Thats why the cavs let him go off court stuff ..

[@user-ef8tr6oj9l]

Sounds like part of this story is missing.

[@Warrior57238]

Yall better leave these crazy men alone and love yourself and not materialistic things

[@MilwaukeeMarv]

How many millions does these guys have to lose with these females too get the picture?
