Milton allegedly pushed an SEC employee and stepped on her shoulders to get down to the court, police said. Video of the incident showed Milton make contact with South Carolina center Kamilla Cardoso before he was led away by authorities.
Cardoso pushed Johnson to the floor, which led to Milton getting onto the court. The 6-foot-7 center was then ejected for fighting and will miss the team’s first NCAA Tournament game later this month.
Cardoso apologized for her involvement in the skirmish, which caused a 19-minute delay.
