The Leicester Riders have released a statement after their BBL clash with Plymouth City Patriots was marred by an ugly incident.
The Riders prevailed 86-71 in the first leg of the quarter-final play-off. They have already finished top of the league table having won 25 of their 27 matches.
But the post-match talk all centred around a flashpoint in the third quarter, when Leicester coach Rob Paternostro was attacked by a spectator. Following the match, a club spokesman confirmed that police were investigating.
