Very early this morning, TMZ Sports released this video of Lakers star Lou Williams getting handcuffed and thrown up against the side of a police car in Las Vegas. The video was taken back in September after the Floyd Mayweather/Andre Berto fight outside of The Cromwell Hotel & Casino.

TMZ Sports reached out to the Las Vegas Metro Police Department and found out that Williams was not arrested that night, but witnesses told TMZ Sports that Williams was involved in an altercation with another man right before the police showed up. Williams' agent denied that accusation and told TMZ Sports that Williams had nothing to do with an altercation that took place.

“Apparently, there was an issue that he wasn’t involved in, which is why they didn’t arrest him,” agent Wallace Prather III said. “If Lou was fighting in public in Las Vegas, they would have arrested his ass…He wasn’t fighting anyone.”

No other details are available at this time.
