IndyStar Sports reveals Oden will wear a GPS ankle bracelet:

Per Bill McCleery and Matthew Glenesk of the Indianapolis Star, it is alleged that Oden punched a woman in the face who he had previously dated for two years. They broke up approximately two months ago, per the report.

The alleged victim was initially uncooperative, but her best friend convinced her to tell police what happened, according to McCleery and Glenesk.

"There isn't that much love in the world. You need to tell that he punched you in the face," the witness said to the alleged victim.

Oden accepted responsibility at the scene, according to the police report via WTHR Channel 13.

"Things got out of control and I started to go after the victim. My relative and witness tried to hold me back, but as I swung my arms to move them out of the way, then punched the victim in the face. I was wrong and I know what has to happen," Oden said.

TheIndyChannel.com's staff provided details of the incident:

Lawrence Police Department (LPD) investigators said just after 3:30 a.m. Thursday, officers headed to the 7200 block of Maple Bluff Place on a report of a disturbance. After speaking with Oden outside the house, officers found a woman lying inside on a couch with blood covering her face. ... ... Officers said the victim also had swelling of the nose and cuts on her forehead and nose. There was blood on the sofa and floor of the living room and a flower pot had crashed to the floor. LPD said the victim had a very hard time talking about the incident.

Liane Morejon of Local10.com provided an additional look at Oden's mugshot:

The 7-foot center played in the NBA this past season for the first time since the 2009-10 campaign. He served as a reserve for the Miami Heat and averaged 2.9 points and 2.3 rebounds in 9.2 minutes per game.

Oden has dealt with serious knee injuries throughout his career, and it seemed as though he might never play again after two seasons with the Portland Trail Blazers, the team that drafted him in 2007 ahead of Kevin Durant.

He was recently in the news because he was expected to have a workout with the Los Angeles Clippers, according to ESPN's Jorge Sedano:

Oden certainly hasn't been the dominant player most expected him to be, but the fact that he was even playing was a small victory. Oden's agent has yet to release a statement on the incident, according to WTHR Channel 13.
