Former UConn men’s basketball standout James Bouknight issued an apology on Twitter on Monday after he was ejected from his courtside seat during the second half of the Huskies’ 72-61 victory over Xavier at Gampel Pavilion on Saturday.
According to multiple internet reports, Bouknight was ejected for standing on the court with his cellphone. He ended up sneaking back into the student section to watch the rest of the win.
”I allowed my emotions to get the better of me during a heated and competitive game and I regret part in the incident that took place with the officials,” Bouknight said in the apology.
