Wizards star guard Bradley Beal is under police investigation for battery after a confrontation with a disgruntled gambler at a game in Orlando, according to reports.
The three-time NBA All-Star is accused of arguing with hecklers after a March 21 loss to the Magic, with one fan exclaiming to Beal, “You f–ked me [out of] $1,300 you f–k.”
The 29-year-old Beal allegedly responded by knocking a hat off one of the fans’ heads and said, “I don’t give a f–k about none of your bets or your parlays, bro. That ain’t why I play the game,” according to TMZ Sports.
The alleged exchange lasted for less than a minute.
A complaint against Beal was filed hours after the game, according to the Orlando Police Department.
The complaint notes that “probable cause exists to charge Beal with simple battery,” documents obtained by ESPN said.
Charges have not yet been filed, ESPN reported Tuesday morning.
The Wizards have yet to address the situation, whereas the Magic told TMZ Sports they’re “letting the OPD handle it.”
Beal, the third overall pick in the 2012 NBA Draft, has spent the entirety of his playing career in Washington.
Over the summer, Beal signed a five-year, $251 million max contract with the Wizards.
So far this season, Beal has recorded an average of 23.2 points per game, 3.9 rebounds and 5.4 assists.
The Wizards, who are the No. 11 seed in the Eastern Conference at 33-42, will host the second-seeded Celtics on Tuesday night.
