BEIJING — Stephon Marbury denied hitting a fan after a testy playoff loss in a Chinese Basketball Association game.
The 35-year-old former Knicks star and his Beijing Ducks teammates were trapped in their team van after their 102-100 road loss on Sunday to the Shanxi Brave Dragons, Marbury’s original team when he joined the league in 2010. A newspaper photograph showed fans pounding on the windows of the van.
Marbury scored 25 points in the game that was interrupted for 10 minutes.
