Report: Larry Sanders punched former teammate Mike Dunleavy in 2012-13

Here's a shocker: Bucks center Larry Sanders acted out of line.
In an interview on SportsRadio 1250, Gery Woelfel of the Racine Journal Times alleges that Sanders punched former teammate Mike Dunleavy during the 2012-13 season.
In Woelful's words:
Earlier that same season — which didn’t go reported until I found out last season, if that makes sense – was that early in that season he and Mike Dunleavy had a confrontation. Dunleavy was sitting in front of his stall after a game. They’re talking about sharing the ball blah blah blah and Sanders walks over and says ‘helloooo’ and clocks him.
Punching a teammate simply adds another ledger to Sanders' rather lengthy rap-sheet. A partial list of his transgressions:
- Twice cited for animal cruelty for leaving his pet dogs out in the cold
- Got into a kerfuffle with former teammate Monta Ellis in 2013
- Broke his thumb in a nightclub prompting criminal charges in 2013
- Five-game suspension in 2014 for abusing the league's substance abuse policy
