According to the Detroit Free Press, Laettner and Stackhouse apparently were involved in a card game that got out of hand and threw punches before the scuffle was broken up.
"I couldn't believe it. I looked up and they were going at it, throwing blows. I wasn't about to get in the middle of it," one player who was not identified told the newspaper.
One unidentified source said the players were arguing over $2,000, and Stackhouse landed some blows to Laettner's face. The Pistons intend to ban card games on future flights, the Free Press said.
Laettner has been out of the lineup since sustaining a fractured rib April 1 against Chicago. The report said he did not reinjure it in the fight.
DALLAS - Jazz guard Kirk Snyder and Mavericks forward Jerry Stackhouse engaged in a 40-second fistfight in an American Airlines Center hallway Saturday night after the Jazz's 88-81 loss to Dallas.
Stackhouse, who had traded words with Snyder on the floor during the game, was standing near the entrance to the arena's garage, where the Mavericks players park their cars, and where the Jazz's bus was waiting. As Snyder walked past, according to witnesses, the pair began arguing again, and quickly came to blows.
Snyder was knocked to the concrete floor during the fight, according to one arena security official who witnessed the confrontation but declined to give her name. "They started yelling, and then there were several punches. [Snyder] got hit pretty hard a couple of times," the female security official said. "He was bleeding by the time it was over."
Dallas police officers rushed to the tunnel and helped break up the fight, ordering Snyder to the team bus and Stackhouse back to the Mavericks' locker room. Jazz coach Jerry Sloan soon came out to the bus, pulled Snyder off of it, and conferred with the rookie and his coaches. It appeared that Snyder was professing his innocence to the coach
"I don't want to say much until I know what happened, until I hear from both sides," said Sloan, who was later interviewed by arena security personnel before the team bus finally departed. "There was a confrontation. It got physical. [Snyder] says he was not at fault."
Mavericks owner Mark Cuban, however, told a group of reporters that Stackhouse also claimed he was innocent. .
JERRY STACKHOUSE, the Philadelphia 76ers' star, was suspended for two games and fined $7,500 by the National Basketball Association yesterday for a fight with JEFF HORNACEK of Utah in a game on Wednesday night. Stackhouse, who leads rookies in scoring with 19 points a game, will miss games at the Los Angeles Clippers tonight and Seattle tomorrow.
Stackhouse and Hornacek were ejected in the third period in Salt Lake City after Stackhouse grabbed Hornacek by the throat and hit his face at least two times.
Utah won, 107-84. The Jazz said Hornacek had not thrown a punch, but he, too, was given a punching foul. Both were automatically fined $1,000 for being ejected. Hornacek received no other penalty. (AP)
And I heard stories about his hand skills while he was a member of the Pistons

Even Shaq just walked towards the bench cause he really wanted no parts of that

Well Shaq had a tech already, so he didn't wanna get a second one. And Toine Walker got in Stack's face a little.
Tech or no tech..he just walked away, seems to me like he didn't even look in Stack's direction
And Twan Walker? He probably just walked up to him and was like "man you didn't have to do him like that"...

Someone take me back to the 80's where hard fouls weren't flagrants and when players wouldn't complain about 80% of the calls made by officials.
