LeBron James calls suspension for bloodying Isaiah Stewart's face 'some bulls***'

The Los Angeles Lakers star returned from a one-game NBA suspension on Wednesday in a win over Indiana Pacers. He doesn't think he should have been banned in the first place.

LeBron: Hand 'grazed' Stewart's face

James addressed his suspension in his postgame media session and gave his side of the incident that left blood pouring from the face of Detroit Pistons forward Isaiah Stewart on Sunday. James said that the contact was accidental, and that he just "grazed" Stewart's face.

"His elbow got kinda high, got me off balance a little bit," James said.
