It has been reported that reigning NBA champion Derrick White was punched in the face during a fight in the stands at the Colorado-CSU football game.
Unfortunately, during a recent Colorado-CSU football game, reigning NBA Champion Derrick White was involved in an altercation in the stands that led to him getting punched in the face.
White, a Boston Celtics star and a Univ. of Colorado alum, attended the Buffaloes’ big rivalry matchup with Colorado State over the weekend at Canvas Stadium in Fort Collins in some CU swag … and, initially, it looked like he was enjoying the game without issue.
But, one witness in attendance tells us during the second quarter … the hooper got into a bit of a verbal spat with some Rams fans as Deion Sanders and Co. began handling business on the field.
In the third quarter — as it became clear White’s Buffs were likely going to win — the apparent arguing turned violent … as you can see in our video, a man in a CSU hat and a Utah shirt swung his arm into the side of White’s head.
The blow connected so hard — it knocked the hat right off White’s dome … and a huge skirmish then ensued.
Multiple people raced in … and while White was pulled out of the mix quickly — nearly a dozen people pushed, shoved and put each other in headlocks for several moments.
The authorities were called to diffuse the situation and ensure the safety of all attendees. Talk about a crazy night at the game! I hope Derrick White is okay.
