After Miami’s loss, ESPN’s cameras continued following Fletcher and caught up getting into a heated altercation with Tyrique Tucker.
A video posted on social media shows Fletcher punching Tucker in the face and then continuing to go after the Indiana player.

It’s unclear what prompted Fletcher to punch Tucker, but it’s clear that he’s going to hear from the NCAA soon.
Fletcher has already said that he will be returning next season, and will likely face punishment for his actions.
