Less than a month after marrying supermodel Adriana Lima, Chris Mannix of SI.com reports today that “a Philadelphia woman has accused Memphis Grizzlies guard Marko Jaric of sexual assault, multiple sources familiar with the investigation told SI.com. The incident allegedly occurred in March when the Grizzlies were in Philadelphia to play the 76ers.”
(Yes, we’re as flummoxed as you are)
This after the original report from an NBC-TV station in Philly yesterday.
Sucks for me. too. I had Hamed Haddadi in the office pool.
*UPDATE*: The PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER follows up that no charges will be filed against Jaric, as a spokesperson for the Philadelphia District Attorney’s office has stated, “The allegations lack prosecutorial merit.”

If you got Adriana Lima, why in God's name would you go after any other woman?

Show me a hot woman and there is a guy sick of being with her. If he can land Lima he is likely used to lots of attention…..YOU try keeping that to 1 woman! (Probably also why he wouldnt like hearing "no"…..err…Kobe!)
