Spears shared a statement on social media following the incident.

"I am aware of the player's statement where he mentions ‘I grabbed him from behind’ but I simply tapped him on the shoulder. His security then backhanded me in the face without looking back, in front of a crowd," the singer shared.

"I get swarmed by people all the time. In fact, that night. I was swarmed by a group of at least 20 fans. My security team didn’t hit any of them," she added.

Meanwhile, Wembanyama told reporters that his "security pushed [a woman] away" but that he didn't know at the time who the woman was.
