Two Washington Wizards players were involved in a fight outside a nightclub early Friday morning, The Washington Post reported.
JaVale McGee and Andray Blatche were reportedly yelling at each other, and league sources said that the teammates came to blows outside a Washington-area club. No arrests were made and no one was injured, the Post reported.
One source told the newspaper that teammate Al Thorton tried to separate Blatche and McGee but was punched by a bouncer.
The Wizards denied the report.
“The team looked into the matter earlier today and determined it was simply a disagreement between teammates,” a team spokesman told the paper.
Blatche, a sixth-year power forward, is averaging 16.8 points and 7.7 rebounds this season, and third-year center McGee is averaging 9.2 points and 4.9 rebounds.
The Wizards’ next game is against the Spurs in San Antonio on Sunday.
