Trainer Tim Grover recalls witnessing Barkley throw fan through window

Charles Barkley was involved in numerous altercations with fans during his NBA career, one of which ended with him throwing a man out the window of an Orlando bar.

Longtime NBA trainer Tim Grover, who worked with Barkley and other stars like Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant, had a front-row seat for the 1997 window-tossing incident and shared the story on the latest episode of "The Complex Sports Podcast."

"We were at a restaurant and this guy kept asking him for an autograph, asking him for an autograph, and Charles politely said, 'Not right now, I'll take care of you later. I'm having dinner with friends,'" Grover said. "And this guy kept ... he was just continuing, continuing, continuing, continuing.

"So as this guy's leaving, he said something to Charles. Oh, it pissed Charles off so much. So Charles literally got the guy and threw him through the glass window of the restaurant."

Barkley, then a member of the Houston Rockets, was subsequently charged with aggravated battery and resisting arrest without violence. The Hall of Famer apparently had no regrets about the incident.

"(The judge) goes, 'Mr. Barkley, do you have any regrets about your actions?'" Grover recalled. "And (Barkley) goes, 'Your honor, I absolutely do.' And she goes, 'Well what were those?' (Barkley) goes, 'I should've threw him out the sixth-floor window instead of the first-floor window.'"
