NBA stars Matt Barnes and DeMarcus Cousins were sued Wednesday over a Chelsea nightclub brawl that allegedly left a 26-year-old woman unconscious.
Two women involved, Jasmine Besiso and Myrone Powell, say the 6-foot-7 Barnes choked and elbowed Besiso in the face, knocking her out, early Monday at Avenue nightclub. Cousins, meanwhile, punched Powell in the face, the suit claims.
A rep for the plaintiffs said Besiso and Barnes were romantically involved at the time.
A spokesman for the players’ team, the Sacramento Kings, didn’t immediately comment.
