This level of violence is going to get actual prison time rather than merely state instituted counseling and some community service work. His career in the NBA is done if all these initial reports are accurate.
Broken bones in the face, and marks on the neck which auggest strangulation. Nahhh. Idgaf if your lebron, GTFO. That is absolutely unacceptable.
That really sucks for him, but it sucks a lot more for her. I hope it's not true. If this ends up being true - that he beat a WNBA player - it's quite likely his career in the NBA will be over for some time. What a tragic story.
his stans on here are the dumbest fcking people alive “who cares that he ran away at halftime” “who cares that he pouts on the court” “he hasn’t had any incidents” people like KPJr don’t learn…it was only a matter of time
This message is for all those people who always say "guilty before being proven innocent is now the standard"all the time when these type of situations occur.
There is no place for the battery of women in society and especially not on my favorite basketball team. Kevin needs to face the consequences up to and including jail time for this it is completely unacceptable for any 'star' or fringe player to lash out violently, but even moreso to do it vs the people whom have supported you and loved you up to that point. Time to cut the strings and move on.
As Rockets' friendly as that contract was drafted, you would assume there is a morals clause that will allow them to get out of even next year's guaranteed salary. Maybe Bima could chime in.
Yeah if he's been arrested, no, he hasn't been convicted in the court of law, but 99.8% chance he did it. Hard to get an arrest to happen at all in these cases, let alone when the guy is rich and famous. This is the last straw. The dude has no self control and is a total POS. Get him off the team.

It would be a tragedy if he only gets a slap on the wrist. He clearly has limited impulse control and he’s been given excessive opportunities to redeem himself. He’s a lost cause.
If he seriously hit this girl hard enough to break a bone in her face, I hope he loses everything and does hard time. The sad thing is you had his stans talking about how she was the reason he was turning his life around.
Dude is an idiot. Can’t control his emotions and just threw his career away. Has had every opportunity to make a change. I have no sympathy for men who abuse women. As a rockets fan I actually feel some relief. I’m ready to get off this ride. This accelerates the culture shift.
That seemed to be a mutual fight where both parties were violent. I believe the women he hit was in a physical altercation with his sister and he got in and hit her hence no charges. That incident after learning context didn't give me much red flags given the context. I mean now there aren't even flags. We know who is now with this incident. There is no more assuming or hoping now that he is an improved person.
