The Carllik Jones, Isaac Bonga and Stirling Brown Early Sunday morning to Monday, they clashed outside Belgrade’s nightclub, with video showing the first to break a glass bottle on a man’s head.
The three players apologized through its official website Partisan for their involvement in the wild fight, stressing that in spite of challenges they accepted, the way they reacted is not appropriate to professional athletes.
“I want to honestly apologize for the incident that happened. I allowed myself to join something that I am not proud of. The act itself was inappropriate for a professional athlete to behave like that, it is frustrating and ashamed of me, my family, my teammates, the club, the president and the administration. I want to apologize to everyone who supports me and see me as a model. I promise that he is not the man I really know as a person. I hope to overcome this situation, learn from my mistakes and focusing on basketball and what my team is trying to achieve. Thanks to the black and white family »said the Carllik Jones.
“Although we were attacked, I know that we should not allow ourselves to be in this situation. I am sorry, because this kind of behavior is not the example we need to give as players. I apologize to the public, the fans, the teammates, the professional staff, the president and the Board of Directors. Personally, I hate that I allowed myself to be in the situation in which I found myself and I want to make up for the best possible way – on the pitch »said the Sterling.
“I’m sorry for the situation that evolved as it evolved. I gave the whole incident to the police and I worked fully. As a professional athlete, I keep high standards and I know that I could have behaved differently. I apologize to the club for any unwanted attention may have caused this. It’s not something I get defied in – and it’s not something that will happen again »said the Isaac Bonga.
