New Zealand Breakers import centre Freddie Gillespie has apologised for an on-court incident which got him suspended for the Australian National Basketball League opener. Gillespie headbutted a Sydney Kings player during a pre-season game and faces a one-match ban which will see him sidelined for Saturday's clash against Brisbane. The 27-year-old American is eager to prove to his new club's fans he's not a bad guy, sports reporter Felicity Reid spoke to Lisa Owen.
