The attorney representing Jaylen Brown's father, Marselles Brown, said in a courtroom minutes ago his client was acting in self-defense during that violent parking lot dispute in Las Vegas on Wednesday.
The lawyer, Arnold Weinstock, told News3LV Marselles only got physical with Cross Tupuola after the youth football coach had pistol-whipped him.
"Everything I know," the attorney said, "and I've known Mr. Brown for quite some time, I do not believe that he initiated anything, and he is telling me that everything that occurred was him trying to defend himself after he was struck.
