08/06/2017 NBA Note - Los Angeles Clippers
Reed, Willie
C Willie Reed, recently signed by the Los Angeles Clippers, was
arrested early Sunday morning in Miami on a domestic violence
charge of misdemeanor battery. Reed's wife, Jasmine Reed, told
police the former Miami Heat player pulled her hair while she
was holding their youngest child. She said she later bashed him
in the head with a glass candle to escape Saturday afternoon at
their downtown Miami luxury apartment, according to the Miami
Herald. Reed told police he never put his hands on his wife but
did touch her hair as she got on the elevator. Reed admitted he
grabbed her purse and her shirt, according to the arrest report.
The police report noted Jasmine Reed "had red marks on her left
wrist, right bicep, the right side of her chest and her back.
She also had some swelling on her left foot." Reed finalized a
one-year, $1.5 million contract with the Clippers last week to
be their backup center.
