Spurs’ Parker injured in nightclub brawl

San Antonio Spurs guard Tony Parker says he suffered a scratched retina on one of his eyes during a New York City nightclub brawl involving singer Chris Brown and members of hip-hop star Drake’s entourage. Parker, wearing dark sunglasses, described the incident Friday in Paris during a news conference. He said he expects to be sidelined for about a week while the French team prepares for the Summer Olympics. Parker (pictured right) said he was wearing a “therapeutic” contact lens and had to go to an emergency room for treatment after arriving in Paris. Police said Brown, his girlfriend and his bodyguard were among several people injured during the bottle-hurling fight early Thursday at W.i.P in SoHo. – Associated Press
