Andray Blatche: 'I'm very sorry for the incident' with JaVale McGee

Wizards forward Andray Blatche issued an apology a day after he and teammate JaVale McGee were suspended for conduct detrimental to the team.

Blatche and McGee will both miss the Wizards' game on Sunday against the San Antonio Spurs after the two had a dispute outside of an area club last week.

"I'm very sorry for the incident," Blatche wrote in a text message. "I had no intention of this ever happening. I apologize for my behavior, to my family, the whole Wizards organization, my fans, my teammates and coaches."

Witnesses at the club have said that the Wizards' starting front line cursed at each other, while two sources added that Blatche and McGee exchanged punches before being restrained from each other. According to one source, Al Thornton attempted to break up the fight and was punched by a club bouncer. Police were called on the scene, but no arrests were made and there were no injuries.
