Michael Axelrod, whose confrontation with Kendra Davis led her husband, Antonio, to charge into the crowd, will not sue the Knicks forward or his family. In a joint statement released yesterday, Michael Axelrod and the Davises said: "It's clear that the episode at the United Center last week, and its aftermath, evolved from some misunderstandings. This has produced regrets from all parties involved. Common sense strongly suggests that we collectively put this episode behind us and move on. That's what the Davises and Michael Axelrod plan to do, and we hope everyone else will, as well." Axelrod's attorney, Jay Paul Deratany, said in a telephone interview: "Both sides expressed regret for any miscommunication that occurred. Both parties want to move forward - with being a fan and watching the game and being a ballplayer. They've expressed their regret and that's good enough for the family. And we're satisfied with the result." Wednesday night in Chicago, Axelrod and Kendra Davis had a heated exchange in the stands, and the situation escalated to the point that Antonio Davis ran into the stands during an overtime timeout. Davis was ejected from the game and was suspended by the NBA the next day. Davis issued a statement after the game saying a drunk fan had touched Kendra, which prompted Axelrod's threat of a lawsuit.</div> New York Daily News
