Celtics’ Davis apologizes for bumping fan

WALTHAM, Mass.—Boston Celtics forward Glen Davis has apologized for bumping a 12-year-old boy while celebrating his game-winning shot against the Orlando Magic.

Davis said Tuesday he didn’t see the boy as he turned and ran to the Celtics bench to celebrate his 21-foot jumper that gave the Celtics a 95-94 win over the Magic on Sunday. It tied the second-round playoff series at 2-2.

Video of the play shows the 6-foot-9, 289-pound Davis ducking behind a referee and stepping out of bounds before bumping the boy and knocking off his hat.

The boy’s father wrote the NBA office demanding an apology.
