AUSTIN RIVERS ON MO BAMBA
“He tried to run up on me or whatever… but ain’t nobody worried about him, man. I’m keeping it 💯 with you. He let like a 5-foot-8 guy push him off and take him back to the locker room. So I don’t know how serious his threats were.” pic.twitter.com/HSyxeDyHeB – 5:48 AM

After being buried on the bench the past month, Mo Bamba got the start tonight because of Wendell Carter Jr.’s late injury scratch. Proceeds to get ejected while not even in the game. – 10:23 PM

Clutch Points: “This isn’t a cool moment for me. I feel embarrassed… If I throw a punch and land it the wrong way, I could break my hand and be out for the season… Go watch that video. I’ve never said nothing to him.” Austin Rivers on the fight with Mo Bamba 👀 pic.twitter.com/I0dIFv8Z9Q -via Twitter @ClutchPointsApp / February 4, 2023
Jon Krawczynski: Bamba confronted Rivers by the locker room: Rivers: “He tried to run up on me or whatever. Ain’t nobody worried about him, man. I’m gonna keep it 100 with you. He let a 5-foot-8 guy push him off and take him back to the locker room. I don’t know how serious his threats were.” -via Twitter @JonKrawczynski / February 4, 2023
Jon Krawczynski: Austin Rivers: “I never want to fight nobody. That’s never the answer. I always do that in self defense. But when someone like that, 7-foot, he stands up in front of me and comes at me with that aggression, at that point I gotta protect myself.” -via Twitter @JonKrawczynski / February 4, 2023
