Kings' Matt Barnes: Expected to play Wednesday
The New York Police Department hasn't issued a warrant for Barnes' arrest after the Kings forward was accused of choking a woman at a Manhattan nightclub Monday, the New York Post's Tina Moore and Natalie Musumeci reports. Barnes is expected to play in Wednesday's game against the Mavericks.
Analysis:
Barnes attended the nightclub following the Kings' road loss to the Knicks on Sunday, and allegedly choked the woman and punched a man who attempted to intervene. By the time police arrived at the club, Barnes had already departed, so he never faced any questioning. Unless law enforcement issues a warrant for his arrest or indicts him in connection with the incident, Barnes isn't expected to face any discipline from the NBA or the Kings.
