CHARLOTTE, N. Gorgui Dieng Jersey .C. -- Panthers Pro Bowl defensive end Greg Hardy will spend Tuesday night in jail after being arrested on misdemeanour charges of assault on a female and communicating threats. Mecklenburg County Sheriffs Office Spokeswoman Julia Rush said in an email to The Associated Press Hardy will spend the night in Mecklenburg County jail and will have a court appearance Wednesday morning in Charlotte. Hardy turned himself in Tuesday and was transferred to the custody of the Mecklenburg County Sheriffs Office where he was booked. He appeared before the magistrate where he was not issued bond. It is normal procedure for suspects in domestic violence cases to be denied bond as part of a 24-hour cooling off period. The Panthers said in a statement, "We are very disappointed to learn of the allegations involving Greg and are concerned for all parties as we continue to investigate." Hardys agent Drew Rosenhaus declined comment to The Associated Press. Hardy signed the teams franchise tag tender in March and will make $13.116 million this season if he doesnt sign an extension before July 15. The 25-year-old Hardy has 26 sacks over the past two seasons with the Panthers, including a franchise-tying 15 in 2013. According to the police report, patrol officers responded to a domestic violence assault call for service at 4:18 a.m. Tuesday in Charlotte. The report states that upon arrival officers spoke to the victim, a 24-year-old white female, who advised that she had been physically assaulted and threatened by Hardy. The victim also stated that she and Hardy had been in a relationship since September 2013. The report also states the victim suffered bruises and scratches, but refused treatment. After talking with the woman, police obtained warrants to arrest Hardy. The Panthers recently agreed to give Hardy a $1.3 million advance on his franchise tag if he attends the teams voluntary off-season workouts. Hardy has been a flamboyant personality since joining the Panthers and regularly refers to himself as the "Kraken," after a mythical sea creature. A motorcycle accident before his second season with the team left Hardy with severe skin burns and prevented him from participating in the teams training camp, although he still made it back for the 2011 season. He has long been one of the outspoken players in the locker room, predicting a late-season win against Atlanta in 2012. He has also been one of the most productive the past two seasons, earning him the franchise tag tender even though the Panthers are strapped under the salary cap. By keeping Hardy, the Panthers were forced to let other free agents walk, including safety Mike Mitchell, cornerback Captain Munnerlyn and wide receivers Brandon LaFell, Ted Ginn Jr. and Domenik Hixon. The team also released wide receiver Steve Smith. Kevin Garnett Jersey . Earnshaw, 31, most recently spent time on loan in Israel with Maccabi Tel Aviv from Welsh club Cardiff City, which plays in Englands second-tier League Championship. Earnshaw began his career with Cardiff Citys youth program and turned professional in 1998. Custom Minnesota Timberwolves Jerseys . - Diego Fagundez scored his team-leading 13th goal of the season in the 76th minute to lift the Revolution to a 3-2 victory over the Columbus Crew on Saturday night that kept New Englands playoff hopes alive.NEW ORLEANS - With 7-footer Omer Asik joining 6-10 All-Star Anthony Davis, the New Orleans Pelicans figured they would have a formidable frontcourt this season.It sure looked pretty good on opening night.Davis and Asik combined for 40 points, 34 rebounds and 14 blocks, and New Orleans beat the Orlando Magic 101-84 on Tuesday.We just know that were a load in that paint — him with his great body and me able to move around, just try to follow the ball and get rebounds, said Davis, who scored 26 points, grabbed 17 rebounds and tied a career high with nine blocks. Its a good combination.Tobias Harris scored 25 points and Nikola Vucevic added 15 points and 23 rebounds for the Magic, who never led in the second half.Asik, acquired from Houston in an off-season trade, finished with 14 points, 17 rebounds and five blocks, which also matched a career best.Davis and Asik combined for 16 offensive rebounds, and the Pelicans finished with 32 second-chance points.They cover up a lot of mistakes that you tend to make just by being aggressive, Pelicans coach Monty Williams said.Indeed, the Pelicans shot only 40.6 per cent (41 of 101) and missed 16 free throws, but still won by 17, something Magic coach Jacque Vaughn said was tough to fathom.Give them a lot of credit for their aggressiveness and physicality that they played with, their second-chance points and getting to the board, Vaughn added. It stares you in the face. That was the difference.That, and Pelicans forward Ryan Anderson, who is coming back from surgery on a herniated disk that cost him more than half of last season. He scored 22 points, including 12 points in a span of 1:39 that helped the Pelicans surge to a 14-point lead at the end of the third quarter.It was good for us and good for Ryan, Williams said. It was almost like a statement for him that he was back because he has the ability to change a game with his shooting.The Pelicans lead got as large as 23 when Asiks putback made it 97-74 with 2:36 left.Davis could have had his first triple-double and set a franchise single-game high for blocks if he had gotten one more, but Williams suubbed Davis out — to a standing ovation — with 2:29 left. Taj Gibson Jersey. f he gets (10 blocks) naturally, great, but thats not our focus and thats not his focus, Williams said. Im sure hell take a win over a triple-double any time.Orlando led by as many as six points in the first quarter on Vucevics layup, but the Pelicans controlled the second quarter and took a 48-41 lead on Davis putback dunk just seconds before halftime.TIP-INSMagic: First-round pick Elfrid Payton started in his first NBA game in his hometown. Payton is from suburban New Orleans and played his college ball at Louisiana-Lafayette. He had four points, seven assists and five rebounds. It was good being able to play in front of my family and friends, Payton said. At times we played well. We have to pick it up on defence and have to get to the boards.Pelicans: Foul shooting plagued the Pelicans in the first half. They missed 11 of their first 14 free throws and finished 15 of 31. ... Guard Jrue Holiday played the fourth quarter with stitches and a bandage above his right eye after taking an elbow from Payton.ANDERSONS SPURT:Anderson was animated during his pivotal scoring spurt late in the third quarter. He had missed nine of his first 13 shots before converting a three-point play. After Davis hit a 20-footer, Anderson buried three straight 3-pointers, yelling, Thats what Im talking about, after the second. His third gave New Orleans an 11-0 run to close the quarter and sent the crowd into a frenzy.Those are moments that are just great moments that Ill always remember, Anderson said. Those are moments that are big moments in the game.EVANS EXPERIMENTTyreke Evans, who is 6-foot-6, has played guard for most of his first five NBA seasons, including last season, his first in New Orleans. But Williams wanted Evans in the starting lineup this season with guards Holiday and Eric Gordon, so Evans has become an undersized small forward. He had 12 points, nine rebounds and six assists.UP NEXTOrlando hosts the Washington Wizards in its regular-season home opener Thursday night.New Orleans hosts Dallas on Saturday night. Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys China NFL Cheap Jerseys ' ' '
