Former Louisville forward Montrezl Harrell is in a bit of trouble following a postgame incident in which he shoved an NBA D-League referee to the floor.
The National Basketball Referees Association has condemned Harrell in an official statement:
“After carefully reviewing videotape and related evidence concerning this incident, we have reached the inescapable conclusion that Harrell committed a deliberate assault and battery against Referee [Jason] Goldenberg,” NBRA general counsel Lee Seham said. “Anything less than a multiple game suspension would constitute a green light for violence against officials.”
