MMA Conor McGregor is involved in yet another controversy with the Miami Heat. 

A woman has accused him of sexual assault while he attended Game 4 of the NBA Finals against the Denver Nuggets in Miami. The Heat addressed the allegations via a Twitter post on social media. 

"We are aware of the allegations and are conducting a full investigation," the Heat released in a statement. "Pending the outcome of the investigation, we will withhold further comment." 

McGregor has since denied the allegations via a statement released by his attorney. 

'These allegations are false. Mr. McGregor will not be intimidated,' his attorney said in a statement. 

During the same game, McGregor was involved in a skit with the Heat's mascot, "Burnie." McGregor hit the mascot twice but it ended up landing the person in the suit in hospital. 

The Heat lost to the Nuggets in five games.
