INDIANAPOLIS -- Indiana Pacers guard Jamaal Tinsley and teammate Marquis Daniels were charged Wednesday in a Feb. 6 bar fight.
A Marion County grand jury indicted Tinsley on a felony charge of intimidation and misdemeanor counts of battery, disorderly conduct and intimidation for the fight at 8 Seconds Saloon, said Matthew Symons, spokesman for the Marion County prosecutor.
Daniels was charged with battery and disorderly conduct, both misdemeanors, Symons said.
Tinsley and Daniels were expected to surrender to authorities Wednesday night or early Thursday, Symons said. The Pacers play a home game Wednesday night against the Milwaukee Bucks.
A message left with a Pacers spokesman was not immediately returned Wednesday.
No one was immediately arrested or charged after the fight, which happened hours after a home loss to Golden State. Instead, a grand jury was convened to examine the evidence and decide whether charges should be filed.
The Indianapolis police report said the bar manager told officers Tinsley had threatened to kill him during the fight. The confrontation with the players followed another fight involving a person who employees thought was trying to steal coats from the coat check area, police said.
Both players have issued statements denying their involvement.
