    Can't you see them getting pretzled up and needing like a team of mathematicians to extricate their limbs from one another?

    Law enforcement sources tell TMZ, the man listed on the police report as the one who slapped Britney Spears is Damian Smith, the Director of Team Security for the Spurs. Our sources say it is not being handled as a criminal matter, because cops determined Smith was not trying to hurt Britney but rather defend Victor Wembanyama.

    https://www.tmz.com/2023/07/06/britney-spears-slapped-in-face-victor-wembanyama-spurs-security/

    Britney Spears was allegedly assaulted Wednesday night in Vegas, after a member of NBA phenom Victor Wembanyama's security backhanded her in the face, and she has filed a police report.

    The incident went down at Catch restaurant in the ARIA Hotel around 8:30 PM. Britney, along with her husband, Sam Asghari, and 2 others went to the restaurant for dinner. She was swarmed by fans as she entered the casino.

    Britney and co. walked over to Catch, and as they were entering the restaurant, Britney spotted Victor. We're told she's a fan and went over to him to ask if they could take a photo together. She tapped him on his back, right shoulder and, we're told the Director of Team Security for the San Antonio Spurs -- the team that drafted Victor last month -- instantly backhanded her, causing her to fall to the ground ... knocking her glasses off.

    Britney composed herself and went to her table. We're told the security guy came over to the table and apologized. He said, "You understand how it is when you're being swarmed by fans." He apologized and Britney accepted it. BTW, we're told he also said when he slapped her he didn't know who she was.

    Britney's security team spent time with Victor's security guy, and afterward her team filed a police report with the Metropolitan Police Dept. alleging battery.

    Although I think the whole thing is unfortunate:

    He apologized and Britney accepted it...Britney's security team spent time with Victor's security guy, and afterward her team filed a police report with the Metropolitan Police Dept. alleging battery.

    Entourage Member #1: "Britney, we need to file a police report."
    Britney: "But it was an accident. He said he's sorry."
    Entourage Member #1:"Britney, do you realize how much free press we can milk out of this?"
    Britney: "Let's go to the restroom. Give me a slap, we'll make a bruise. Then we go to the police."

    Not cool to hit someone. Some could say the action of the security guard was 'toxic'.

    Getting hit in the face by security of a bust is not worth it...

    This whole Britney thing is just a symbolic act to let people know what will happen if someone tap Victor on his back when he's on the court.
