A Michigan jury has convicted Golden State Warriors guard Jason Richardson of a misdemeanor domestic violence charge stemming from an assault on his ex-girlfriend.

Roshonda Jacqmain testified Wednesday that Richardson, 22, pushed her so hard that she fell and struck her head against a wall, putting a large hole in it. The incident took place April 29 at Jacqmain's apartment, where Richardson had gone to pick up their 3-year-old daughter.

Richardson, a 6-foot-6, 220-pound Saginaw native who left Michigan State after his sophomore season to turn pro, testified that he was acting in self-defense, according to a Thursday report in The Saginaw News.

The trial began Wednesday. The jury deliberated 1? hours before reaching its verdict, Saginaw County Prosecutor Michael Thomas said.

Richardson remained free on bond pending a sentencing hearing, which was not immediately scheduled, Thomas said. Richardson faces up to 93 days in jail and $500 in fines.
