Team Bonding: A New Mexico Basketball Player Reportedly Punched His Walk-On Teammate During A Flight Over A Seat

KOB 4 was the first to tell you about these allegations Monday evening.

The family claims this all happened during the teams recent trip to Palm Springs for the Acrisure Classic.

The family claims a scholarship basketball player punched the walk-on player on the flight to Palm Springs.

This was allegedly over an argument concerning where the walk-on player was sitting on the plane.

The family claims the player was punched again by the teammate at the hotel the same day.

Here’s what I know.

New Mexico is about to look like the best team in the country.

I’m a pro walk-on guys, glue guys to the team who keep the locker room loose.

You need walk-ons to keep the locker room together, but they also know their role.

Obviously you’re free to’t be punching someone here, especially at the hotel again.

But like I said earlier, it worked for Auburn, surely it will work for New Mexico right?

You got Pitino blood as the head coach, he knows how to handle situations.
