But not the mom that told her to do it? All I know is what I saw in the clip. I don’t know who said what beforehand Well, there was actual text in the article. “A referee told NBCLA that Benjamin's daughter was encouraged to hit the 15-year-old by her own mother.”

Daughter should be suspended no question, probably for a calendar year. Mom on the other hand should never be allowed at a game again.

I thought I saw a post from Benjamin that he was living in Oregon again - I think he was at a recent football game? Anyhow, he did issue an apology: sports.yahoo.com/ex-chicago-bulls-guard-corey-benjamin-apologizes-after-daughter-threw-punch-at-basketball-tournament-224105855.html?guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbS8&guce_referrer_sig=AQAAAImva0TlPcPArYN99A-5VvSNWFt8Y7M6IJY2s--c_tEBLK4vQgfXx9rzbNQXni-ytUIN5bOAXAe24msVzN_sEbxU7k0MRXgNB0CT0-7g16d5CYNhWez_1obxav8bUqEPt23ui3gB3XzGef5HwzhyA3BFoBRRmFEXC-nHpNXHPd7GAs a father, I’m shocked and disappointed at my daughter’s behavior as this is not a reflection of the values and standards that my family holds,” Benjamin said in a statement, via The Associated Press. “Nor does it exemplify the values, character and spirit of sportsmanship that the game of basketball requires.” To the young lady who was punched by my daughter during a youth basketball game, I sincerely apologize to you and I am praying for your complete healing both physically and emotionally,” Benjamin said in a statement, via The Associated Press. “To her family, I deeply apologize and regret that this happened to your daughter as she did not deserve this to happen to her. "Finally, I apologize to all of those who have been impacted and hurt by the actions of my daughter as well as those of her mother.”
