Sometimes things can get a little heated when you’re playing basketball and you may feel like swinging but violence is NEVER the answer, especially when you’re a celebrity. The person is suing from an incident that happened on the court two years; Sean Kingston and his bodyguard are being sued by the guy, who says he was allegedly sucker punched during a pickup basketball at a gym.
We know there’s always that one person in gym who wants to play “debo” on the court, and the one person who just keeps going with the trash talk but usually we never think it’ll actually lead to violence but clearly from prior history, that’s not the case; some people just not having it and bam, a game turns into an MMA championship match. Luckily things didn’t get that bad, but we may just see a championship wrestling match in a place where everyone wears suits and ties instead of wrestling singlets: the judicial courts. The person who says he was allegedly sucker punched goes by the name Allen Assil says he was hooping at an L.A. Equinox gym back in 2013 when Kingston showed up with his bodyguard, Adrian Pascasio. Assil claims the guys were playing “overly aggressive and in an intimidating manner.” Assil says he asked Sean and his bodyguard to calm down before someone gets hurt and then allegedly in that moment Kingston’s bodyguard wasn’t here for it, Assil says the bodyguard punched him in the face and broke 2 bones.
Kingston’s rep says the bodyguard Assil was referring to has never been employed by Kingston and the lawsuit is only a “money grab” since the statute of limitations runs out on Sunday. Either way Assil’s damages are unspecified in the lawsuit but best believe Kingston better lawyer up anyway because “money grabber” or not, now Assil’s not here for it, one bit.
