A woman says James Harden grabbed her wrist and threw her phone on the roof at a club in Scottsdale, Ariz., because she was filming a fight, according to TMZ Sports.

The fight is under investigation by the Scottsdale Police Department and Harden has been named in the police report but is not a suspect, a legal source told TMZ.

A member of Harden's entourage was reportedly involved in an altercation at Mint nightclub early Saturday morning. The woman says Harden noticed her recording the fight, grabbed her wrist, and threw her phone onto the roof after demanding that she delete the video.

Harden believed the woman was going to sell the footage to TMZ, she says, and she received a combined $500 from Harden and another member of his crew for the phone.

Security reportedly broke up the fight. The woman says she later climbed onto the roof to retrieve her phone and was eventually treated for a wrist injury at a local hospital.

The 28-year-old reigning MVP and his camp declined to comment on the situation to TMZ.
