EXCLUSIVE: Cleveland Cavalier Beaten Up Outside Bar

Cleveland, OH - Cleveland Cavaliers guard Shannon Brown was beaten up outside of West 6th street's 'Liquid' bar Saturday evening. Brown is claiming assault - but so are the bar bouncers.

It all started with an argument over - baseball caps!

Shannon Brown was out that night with fellow Cleveland Cavaliers players Drew Gooden and Larry Hughes.

Before Cavs practice Wednesday afternoon, Shannon Brown released this statement about the incident:

"I was involved in a situation several nights ago that has caused me to file charges against people I feel assaulted me. My father, who is a policeman in Illinois, has been here to help me with this and we are going through the legal process right now. I am going to respect that process by not commenting further at this time."
