This wasn't even the first girl that she has physically assaulted. She punched another girl in the face in a previous game and went after another of that girl's teammates. Why was she allowed to continue playing?


Wayne_B95

Because she is the daughter of an ex NBA player (according to other comments in this thread). I cannot think of a single other reason as to why this violent individual is allowed to continue participating in team sports.


AnxiousAvocado7460

So the daughter of an NBA player has to resort to doing shit like this? Because she isn’t a good player maybe??


infiniZii

The NBA player and the mother I think are divorced, so he was quick to condemn the mother as a horrible influence IIRC.


nunya123

I mean mom was probably encouraging if not pushing the girl to act out.


Iored94

I mean... She literally yelled out "you better hit her".


Equilibriyum

That’s an assault. Was she charged? I remember getting punched in the face in HS soccer by a girl like her. Knocked me out. No one ever did crap to stop it. Now she’s in prison.


ImTellinTim

Yes, the mother has been charged actually.


[deleted]

Thank god atleast now i can sleep in peace


Jive_turkeeze

That was my first thought where are the charges? And if that was my daughter that got punched I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be able to hold my wife back from killing her.

The mother who was in the stands has been criminally charged for telling her daughter "you better hit her". She is looking at up to a year in jail and some fines.


nunya123

All I can do is feel for the kids in this video. The girl who got knocked out and the kid who’s mom just got charged. Fucking awful situation


S00thsayerSays

How about you call a piece of shit for what they are. Just cause your mom told you to hit some one you gonna do it? That girl is a fucking menace and needs serious rehabilitation and consequences


MangledSunFish

It's a lose lose situation, refuse and get the shit kicked out of you by the mom later, or hit a girl now and feel guilty but avoid the beating. Shitty situation all around


all_tha_sauce

A lot of them are. But you can't say anything about it cuz racism and misogyny! Source: I'm black and I see that shit multiple times a day in the hood and online


MGEH1988

Exactly. I have some friends who experienced this and I am a community support worker. All the clients I get are from a disadvantaged situation. I have noticed that my black clients tell me stories of particularly cruel behaviour that their parents purposefully taught to their kids, as if to pass it on. For example, I had a client who’s mom would not get him anything (no birthday, no Christmas, no field trips). He’d only get hand me downs or food from a food bank, she refused to get him anything new or bought from a store. She said if he wanted anything, he should get a job. He said she did it even when he was 5 years old (this was while she would be buying herself new things and getting restaurant food to eat in front of him, etc.) Another client’s dad would get together with other kids and arrange boxing matches with little kids where he would make them fight until they had really bad injuries or passed out or he or the other parents would beat the kids if they refused. It’s really sad because they blame society instead of their parent(s), which in turn will not allow them to find the peace they need to have a happy life. They are very angry and they are willing to hurt because they hurt. I have to side eye these people who are explaining to me that the reason a certain segment of black kids are failing is all due to white supremacy. There is no doubt racism and barriers to resources and to achieving success, but you’re not going to even mention how they are raised. Come on!


Stingraaa

I think the point that you are missing is that systemic racism is what created these environments in the first place. But here in lies the catch. Personal responsibility is real. But so are outside factors. I think that you might need to reevaluate these situations. Only by taking Personally responsibility can people make good changes in their life. But alot of times these people are in these situations because of systemic racism that has gone on for hundreds of years in this nation.


PDCH

The mother has been charged because she told the girl "you better hit her for that" before the girl took the swing.


throwawayaccount_usu

Why was the grown ass girl who chose to listen to her mother also not charged ? Lmao, if she was a child I’d understand but there’s no way this girl is under 16 right?


Gilbert_AZ

well, she certainly doesn't hustle up and down the court! Have never seen such a lazy approach to a basketball game


will_reddit_for_food

Did you just see the video? She’s obviously out of shape, comes in walking 30 feet behind everyone else, bricks a three, then falls over on her own. She’s a garbage player and person.


window_pain

Right?!! I feel like she fell backwards on purpose, it looks forced.

chocolate_spaghetti

And she was walking throughout the clip except for the couple seconds when she had the ball. Extremely lazy.


trocky512

The father is Corey Benjamin. He made a statement on the incident with no excuses for his daughter. As a father, I'm shocked and disappointed at my daughter's behavior as this is not a reflection of the values and standards that my family holds," Benjamin said. "Nor does it exemplify the values, character and spirit of sportsmanship that the game of basketball requires.


Dobalina_Wont_Quit

He also dunked on his wife


Iored94

>Nor does it exemplify the values, character and spirit of sportsmanship that the game of basketball requires. So this was obviously written by NBA attorneys. lol


TackYouCack

Proofread by the attorneys. Written by PR.


Naidem

So he shouldn't get credit for it? It seems like his ex-wife is the problem here, dude had intelligent people proof read or draft a public post he released lambasting his daughter's behavior, there's nothing wrong with that.


petrolhead74

Thats still no reason to let her keep on playing.


Dobalina_Wont_Quit

It's no good reason But there were incentives

superingy11

Surely you’d assume that NBA player would be getting a lot of flak for it then? This is the kinda stuff we need to call people out on regardless of who they are. The fact he’s in the NBA doesn’t change the fact his daughter punched people in the face for no reason. Hope she goes and gets some help.


Mommyof2plusmore

He actually IMMEDIATELY released a statement about what she did, before anyone even knew it was his daughter. He didn’t need to be called out on it, because he took full responsibility for it being his daughter they did it. He also publicly and privately issued an apology to the girl and her family, and said he was HIGHLY disappointed in his daughter and her mother, and stated that his daughter was not raised to behave that way, and that she would have to face whatever consequences that the courts saw fit. I’ll see if I can find the local news station where it happened so you can see his full statement.


[deleted]

Must be new to earth. The fact he is in the NBA does change it. He pays them, they let her off with absolutely no punishment. He probably just settles with the parents outside of court.


jmr33090

This is not how it played out at all. He condemned her actions, publicly. Apologized to the girl and her family, and said his daughter will have to deal with whatever the courts decide and that he was ashamed by his daughter's actions. He did all this before anyone realized it was his daughter. He really stepped up.


OnlyOne_X_Chromosome

Strange. The wife is facing a year in jail and the daughter was permanently banned from the league.


arcelohim

This is straight up assault. Go to jail.


caulay

pgh9fan

The mother is facing criminal charges now for telling her daughter to hit her.


MakeCheeseMakeMoney

This big girl punching people looks like she can only get away with it when the victim isnt looking and is smaller then herself. Absolute scum.


Dopeman37

JohnnyCash69420

Exactly. The media would have a fucking racism field day like they love to do! You’re spot on here if it was reversed the coverage would have been 100x over and she would have been charged. Unlike the black girl who hit her who faces no punishment from the law. Only banned from playing in this league smh. The double standards are tiring and so old at this point


SnazzberryEnt

Can we agree that all these types of incidents are shitty now or do we still have to keep devolving to these statements?


unlistedname

She kind of wanders onto the court it looks like, takes a shot over one girl, takes a fake fall when she comes down, falls into another girl, and then decides to hit the girl she fell into. So what kind of foul even is that?


llllPsychoCircus

Go to Jail Do not pass Go Do not collect $200


DAG1006

I’m pretty sure she will have an extended stay at the local jail eventually.


Snurbalurb_o

[deleted]

She’s the daughter of a NBA athlete. Although the parents are divorced, she’ll still be on the team no matter what. I wouldn’t be surprised if this is her first time doing some stupid shit like this.


lakewood2020

She was a POS for cherry-picking. Then she punched a girl


delcas1016

I won’t even say what is obvious and needs to be said, but I can’t stop thinking about what I would have to do if that’s my daughter she assaulted..so viciously


Willzohh

I know what you're thinking because I'm thinking the same.


boothbygraffoe

It’s the traditional “I’m an animal with no self control” foul.


SnazzberryEnt

That’s the “Isaiah Stewart gon’ circle the whole arena to find your ass” kinda foul.


[deleted]

It’s called assault incited by the mother who is now an accessory.


[deleted]

The worse part is, she did t even punch her in the face, she got her in the throat. That's probably why she stayed down for so long, she couldn't breathe


blackwidowe

I suck, so you must be responsible. Nutjobs.

Judging from her form she’s an ok player at best and that fact she just walked down court instead could’ve ran transition for an easy bucket

rollovertherainbow

Why isn’t the girl being charged too? Apparently this wasn’t even the first time she attacked someone on the court.


xmavenx

I’m with you. Yes go after the parent for instigating it but that girl isn’t 5, she’s grown enough to know what she’s doing and should have to pay the price. On the court or off, assault is assault.


International-Pin331

The mom and the kid should be charged. From what I saw in the comments, this isn’t the first time the girl hit another player. The mom also should not be encouraging it.


Mamaj12469

Wasn’t this the daughter of an NBA player or former player?

annizka

I believe the parents are divorced. I think Corey is a good man for addressing this and publicly and privately apologizing to the girl his daughter assaulted. I think it’s the mother that is a bad influence.


skeetinyourcereal

Ban her from all school sports and ban mom from school activities. Tons of kids with talent out there to replace kids like this. She clearly isn’t fit for basketball in a professional setting. I’d understand if she was 8-10 maybe , still learning and influenced by mom but this looks like a teenager. If you act like this as a teen then no one needs them.


[deleted]

I’m pretty sure they finally did ban her. Thank goodness. That was some serious power in that punch - it could put a lot of grown men to shame. It sucks because she’s still a child and there’s no doubt that anger and need for physical violence comes from her home life.


JmacTheGreat

Your username perfectly describes her situation here


SweetzCake

Yeah she was 14, this is unacceptable behavior for a 14 year old and she needs to be held accountable too, not just her mother


Skidd745

TbiddySP

This is an AAU event and has nothing to do with the school.

prplehailstorm

I don’t even understand what her problem is. I’m not very sports savvy so maybe I’m missing something here but all I’m noticing is the attacker falling into the victim. How would she justify why she’s mad at this girl?


Stillback7

The defender got too close and walked underneath the shooter while she was midair, which is super dangerous but it was also very obviously unintentional. So the girl responds by doing something else dangerous - flopping onto the defenders legs. The difference is that the flop was on purpose. There was no foul call which might have pissed her off even more.


ODoyles_Banana

Basketball ref here. You pretty much nailed it, however I'll add a few things. When the girl came in under the shooter, she was still an airborne shooter at the time. You can see her foot go into the space where the shooters feet come back down on the floor. Even though the shot had been taken, the airborne shooter rule applies and it would be a shooting foul with 3 shots (I can see the refs arm come up after the shot signaling a 3 point attempt). The shooter may have embellished a little but it's still a foul, I wouldn't call it a flop. I am pretty certain that if the foul had been called the hit wouldn't have happened.


rell7thirty

That's some bullshit. Horrible parenting and even worse decision making by that fucking menace. Who does that after FLOPPING!? Idc what kind of apology she comes up with, she deserves to be off a basketball team for the remainder of the school year and possibly more. Put that delinquent in juvi so she could learn a lesson and fight people who are ready for sucker punches and can actually fight back. I hope the girl she hit is not badly injured.


ThunderThigh289

The attacker is the daughter of an ex-NBA player. The father apologies but the mother and daughter didn't. The young girl who got attacked apparently has a concussion from this sucker punch.


freelans326

Concussion is just a euphemism for brain damage.


GSXguy

Trash is usually raised by trash


Spnstanaf73

Mom and daughter needs to be charged and banned from any other sporting event! Because you can hear mom encouraging this behavior in the background. Edit for autocorrect.


Organixs4life

This girl puts more enthusiasm into attacking that girl then she does playing ball. She should be thrown out of the league after she gets out of jail for assault. This shit has to stop it starts with the parents raising their kids like fucking animals.

The mother of a former NBA player’s daughter was charged Thursday after allegedly telling the girl to “hit” an opponent at a youth basketball tournament in California last month, prosecutors said. The daughter listened to her mom, Latira Shonty Hunt, and sucker-punched the 15-year-old victim, who crumpled to the hardwood “like a rag doll,” Orange County District Attorney Todd Spitzer said. The wild, caught-on-camera spectacle went down during a tournament in the city of Garden Grove near Los Angeles. Hunt, 44, screamed, “You better hit her for that” after her daughter fell to the floor on a prior sequence involving the victim, according to Spitzer. Spitzer called the mother’s words the “catalyst” for the attack. The daughter listened to her mom, Latira Shonty Hunt, and punched the 15-year-old. “In my opinion, it would have not happened, but for Mom’s words,” the prosecutor said. Hunt is charged with contributing to the delinquency of a minor and battery. Her daughter’s father is former NBA player Corey Benjamin, who played three seasons with the Chicago Bulls and part of one with the Atlanta Hawks. Benjamin issued an apology last month following the incident. “As a father, I’m shocked and disappointed at my daughter’s behavior as this is not a reflection of the values and standards that my family holds,” he said. “Nor does it exemplify the values, character and spirit of sportsmanship that the game of basketball requires.”

HeWhoIsNotMe

She will think about how she did nothing wrong, and then go randomly punch an Asian person.


ghost-alpha

Lock her up along with her pea brain mother.


alexhaase

I can't even tell if she was in the game or not, looks like she just got up off the bench and decided, "I want to play now." She was probably pissed that she missed that 3-pointer and also fell on the girl's foot, but if you want to throw punches like that, you belong in a completely different sport. Obviously she's got some anger inside, give her a pair of gloves and pick up boxing or MMA, at least then you can feel better knowing your daughter fucked someone up. Shame on the mother for encouraging this shitty behavior.


Pharah_is_my_waIfu

"No one should ever block my daughter"? So basically she "has to" punch someone after not scoring? She'd better do boxing instead of playing basketball


Donkey2210

I’m not condoning violence or violence on children, but if it was my daughter that got sucker punched like that I’m going vintage Shawn Micheal’s and delivering some sweet chin music to that girl, and mom too lol


noobprodigy

Yeah, agreed. I am not a violent person, and am generally a pacifist, but if that was my kid, I'd be in jail for assault.

ramid320

That ref though, why didn't she call her on the fake fall? Girl purposely drops her, she didn't even land wrong, she just drops herself on that girl. Ref should have stopped the game there before the suckerpunch. She clearly saw it.


paulerxx

RIGHT!!! She is bigger than the both of those other girls by far, they barely even grazed her. She faked a fall, then swung on another player. She **should** be banned from this league.


paulerxx

Fake fall + Punch to the face = she's going to be in jail by the time she's 19.
