Etan Thomas, a reporter from Basketball News, spoke with one of the witnesses from the crowd.

“I was walking by the concession line when I just saw everyone start running. They were jumping down from the bleachers and stampeding toward the exit. I have never seen anything like this before. People were so scared; they looked like they were running for their lives, so I started running too. Not like I was going to ask anyone what happened or what was going on. I saw running so I ran.”

Another teenager added: “They should’ve had this at a bigger place, like where the Mystics play in Southeast. That’s a big arena, so you wouldn’t have had to have people all in the aisles and packed around the balcony. That was just a bad set up. Someone could’ve really gotten hurt.”

Cops told TMZ that when they arrived to the scene and conducted a thorough search, they did not locate a firearm and there were no injuries.

Bronny shared on his Instagram that "highschoolers can't even hoop in peace nowadays".
