LeBron James Crashes into Courtside Seats, Wipes Out Golfer Jason Day’s Wife

Those courtside seats at basketball games give you a great view of the action, but that view comes with some inherent risks. Ellie Day, the wife of PGA Golfer Jason Day, found that out the hard way on December 17th while attending the Oklahoma City Thunder vs. Cleveland Cavaliers game in Cleveland.

In the fourth quarter of the game, LeBron James chased after a ball to keep it inbounds and crashed into front row and smashed into Ellie. Ellie was taken to the hospital on a stretcher. Here’s a report that includes a clip of the incident.

Jason has gotten some flak for not trying harder to shield or otherwise protect Ellie, but the incident did happen very quickly and he may have been so surprised that he was unable to react. Maybe. In any event, Ellie was treated and released from the hospital and says LeBron was just doing his job. By the way, Cleveland won 104-100.
