Alabama's Kai Spears denied a report from the New York Times that he was present during a fatal January shooting, but the outlet continues to stand by its reporting.
Another freshman player, Jaden Bradley, was also present at the time of the shooting, police said.
"I have one thing to say – the report in the New York Times was 100% inaccurate and the writer had complete disregard for the truth," his post read."I am trying to process and cope with these false statements that somehow have been published and then seen by so many. So thankful to Alabama Athletics for refuting it on my behalf."
"I am just incredibly disappointed in the irresponsible and demonstrably false reporting by The New York Times," Christian Spears said via the athletic department."We are exploring all legal options at this time. I will have no further comment, instead deferring to the University of Alabama’s statement on the matter."
