Barkley reportedly went off-script when interviewing the NBA Commissioner.
Charles Barkley has never been one to mince words, and he hit the ground running to start the NBA season.
"There's a couple of disturbing incidents about domestic violence in the NBA right now. What are we doing to address that? Because that is a sick — you can't put your hands on women, man. We should be at the forefront in sports when men hit women. What are we as a league going to do about that?" Barkley said.
Silver explained that the league and the NBA Players Association are dealing with these issues, and clarifying that the known cases right now are"accusations" of domestic violence. Bridges is still a member of the Charlotte Hornets. He will serve a 10-game suspension to start the season due to his case.
