Wizards star Bradley Beal ‘is being investigated over claims he knocked a HAT off gambler’s head’
‘You fuck me with $1,300!’ Wizards star Bradley Beal “is under investigation by Orlando police for assault over claims he knocked a HAT off the head of a disgruntled player after a loss to the Magic on March 21.”
Washington Wizards star Bradley Beal is reportedly under investigation for assault over allegations that he ripped a disgruntled player’s hat off his head.
TMZ reports that a group of men approached Beal following the Wizard’s March 22 loss to the Magic at the Amway Center in Orlando. A member of the group allegedly yelled ‘fuck me’ [out of] $1,300, fucked up’, on Beal, according to a police report obtained by TMZ.
Beal reportedly confronted the fan, calling him “disrespectful” while appearing to slam a hat onto a man’s head as the two sides continued to boss each other around.
“Keep a dollar,” Beal said, according to TMZ. ‘I don’t give a shit about any of your bets or your parlays, bro. That’s not why I play the game.
Beal was then led to the locker room without further incident, but is reportedly being investigated by the Orlando Police Department (OPD) for assault. Spokespersons for OPD, Wizards and Magic did not immediately respond to DailyMail.com’s request for more information.

Play was poor for Beal, a 29-year-old who has averaged 23.2 points per game this season. The former Florida star finished with just 16 points on 4-for-15 shooting as the Wizards were outscored by 10 points in their 31 minutes of action.
The game was close going into the fourth quarter, but Orlando pulled away on a 35-24 run in the last 12 minutes of action.
