'We were going to protect our brother': Anthony Davis on Isaiah Stewart-LeBron James altercation

Los Angeles Lakers' Anthony Davis offers his take on the Isaiah Stewart-LeBron James altercation on Sunday.

Both players were ejected from the court during the Lakers-Detroit Pistons game after a misplaced elbow from James caused a mass brawl.

Pistons' center Stewart took the elbow as intentional which made him fly into a rage with his teammates struggling to hold him back.

Mr Davis said: “Everyone in the league knows LeBron isn’t a dirty guy. As soon as he did it, he looked back and told him, ‘My bad. I didn’t try to do it".
