The following is a press release sent out by Bonzi Well's agent, William Phillips, on Monday, October 24, 2005:

On the front page of the October 22, 2005 edition of The Sacramento Bee’s Sports section, an article erroneously implied that Bonzi Wells engaged in ‘tussles’ with teammates and was charged with marijuana possession and domestic abuse when he was a member of the Portland Trail Blazers. These implied allegations are completely false. Both the Sacramento Bee’s writer, Joe Davidson and its sports editor, Bill Bradley have acknowledged the editing error and committed to a correction.

In response to the article, Bonzi Wells offers the following statement:

"The allegations implied in the Sacramento Bee article that ran October 22, 2005 are totally false. I am very disappointed by these implied allegations. I have three sons that I have carefully taught all of their lives stay away from drugs and to treat all human beings with respect. I want my sons and the public to know the truth --- I have never been: a) in locker room tussles with teammates; b) charged with possession of marijuana (nor any other drug); nor c) charged with domestic abuse.
