Redick addressed the incident to reporters on Sunday with a traditional firm line:
“We’re clearly conscious that the investigation has been reopened and we’re going to cooperate totally. However aside from that, I’m not going to have one other touch upon that.”
Hayes is within the last yr of his two-year, $4.6 million take care of the Lakers and he performed as not too long ago as Friday – scoring 4 factors towards the Toronto Raptors.
Mike Bass, a spokesperson for the league, instructed ESPN:
“On account of the media report and video posted this morning, we’re reopening our investigation.”
TMZ posted over 5 minutes of safety footage from three years in the past involving the 7ft massive man, which is stamped as July 28, 2021, throughout Hayes’ time with the New Orleans Pelicans.
The NBA’s stance on home violence has been shockingly lenient and following the likes of Kevin Porter Jr and Miles Bridges, it might be no shock to see Hayes return to the ground tonight.
