Toronto Raptors guard Terence Davis charged with assault, criminal mischief in New York - Toronto Star

Toronto Raptors guard Terence Davis was charged for allegedly assaulting his girlfriend at a New York hotel Tuesday night, a police spokesperson told the Star.

Officers responded to a call around 8:30 p.m. for reports of an assault at the Beekman hotel, located in the lower Manhattan area, police said.

Upon arrival, police learned Davis and his girlfriend got into a verbal dispute. He then allegedly struck her in the eye “causing substantial amount of pain,” a deputy commissioner of public information told the Star.

He also grabbed the woman’s phone and broke the screen, police allege.

Davis was arrested and charged with assault and criminal mischief.

News of the arrest was first reported by the New York Post.

“We’re aware of the reports and are seeking more information,” a team spokesperson told the Star.

The 23-year-old shooting guard joined the Raptors as a free agent and was named to NBA’s all-rookie second team.

Davis made headlines during the NBA’s restart in the Walt Disney World bubble in Florida when a photo circulated on social media of him wearing a mask with a hole cut in it.

Raptors president Masai Ujiri and GM Bobby Webster spoke to Davis afterward.

The mask photo made the rounds around the same time the NBA issued a threat of a fine or suspension for improper mask use in the bubble during the COVID-19 pandemic.

In December 2018, the Raptors waived Kay Felder immediately following his arrest on domestic violence charges. Felder was playing for the team’s G League affiliate Raptors 905 in Mississauga.

According to the Washington Post, the NBA’s official definition of domestic violence includes “behaviour that intimidates, manipulates, humiliates, isolates, frightens, terrorizes, coerces, threatens, injures, or places another person in fear of bodily harm,” and NBA commissioner Adam Silver “may fine, suspend, or dismiss and disqualify” any player who violates the policy.
