As the Los Angeles Lakers took a 2-0 lead in their playoff series against the Denver Nuggets, star forward Jordan Hill was smiling for the cameras inside a Houston, TX police station.
STORY: Uh Oh! Los Angeles Laker Charged With Assault!
According to TMZ, Hill’s mug shot was taken moments after the basketball player turned himself into authorities in Houston yesterday.
Hill is accused of choking his girlfriend during an argument back in February. Hill insists the allegations will not affect the Lakers’ playoff run and it hasn’t as the Lake show is rolling without him.
After Hill was taken into custody, he immediately posted the $5,000 bond and was immediately released. The judge set no travel restrictions on his bond so the case shouldn’t affect his playoff run.
The judge did however impose a protective order barring Hill from contacting or going anywhere near his ex.
