NBA-King James issues royal pardon after clash with golfer's wife (Reuters)

Dec 17 (Reuters) - Cleveland forward LeBron James apologised to the wife of Australian golfer Jason Day after a court-side collision forced her out of the Quicken Loans Arena on a stretcher at the end of Thursday's win over Oklahoma City.

Ellie Day was sitting front-row with her U.S. PGA Championship-winning husband when James dived for a loose ball with three minutes remaining in the 104-100 win over the Thunder.

James saved the ball from going out-of-bounds, but crashed head-first into Day, who remained on the side-line for a few minutes while receiving medical attention.
