The Sacramento Kings were in New York last night to play the Knicks.  After taking an L it appears some of the Kings went out to a NYC nightclub.

According to TMZ Sports, there was an altercation inside the club involving Matt Barnes and DeMarcus Cousins.  Barnes is accused of choking a woman at some point during the incident:

Law enforcement sources tell us cops got a 911 call to Avenue Nightclub after midnight, reporting a man assaulting 2 women and another man. We're told things got physical when Barnes allegedly choked one woman during an argument -- and when 2 other people tried to intervene ... he punched both of them.

In a video captured outside of the nightclub Boogie Cousins can be heard complaining he hurt his hand punching a dude that was choking Barnes.  Who knows what actually happened.

I still don't understand why athletes feel the need to go out.  Have the good time come to you with people you know.  Everyone douchebag at the club will want to challenge you.
