ATLANTA — The Atlanta Hawks say Hall of Famer Dominique Wilkiins was attacked by a fan after their victory over the Orlando Magic.

Rashan S. Michel, who was arrested and charged with simple battery, said Wilkins owed him money, Atlanta police told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. The newspaper reported that Michel is a former NBA referee and also has officiated college basketball games.

Michel was released from custody at 12:54 a.m. CST on $1,000 bond, according to the Fulton County sheriff's office.

Wilkins is a vice president with the team and serves as a television analyst. He had just finished working Atlanta's 85-82 victory Wednesday night from his customary spot on press row when the alleged incident occurred at Philips Arena.

Wilkins was not injured in the incident.
