Matt Barnes Attacked Derek Fisher For Dating Estranged Wife Gloria Govan
By Ty Duffy
The New York Post is reporting that Matt Barnes attacked New York Knicks coach Derek Fisher. Fisher has been dating Barnes’ estranged wife, Gloria Govan, who appears on Basketball Wives LA.
"But when Barnes learned that Fisher was at his former home with Gloria, he drove 95 miles to LA to “beat the s–t” out of Fisher, sources said. “Derek was in Gloria’s back yard with about 10 people having a bonfire on Saturday,” said a source. “Derek’s separated from his wife and there’s a relationship with [Gloria].”"
Per the Post, Fisher suffered “a few scratches” and is not going to press charges. The Knicks said Fisher missed practice on Monday for personal reasons.
Per Woj, the NBA found out about the incident today.
NBA security didn't find out about an alleged Barnes-Fisher confrontation at home of Barnes' estranged wife until today, sources tell Yahoo.
